The Administrative Court dismissed the Tax Ombudsman's appeal against the Tax Agency's decision to grant family tax deductions for home renovation work. The Tax Ombudsman argued that the residence must have been put to use before the work was completed to qualify for the deduction. The court upheld the Tax Agency's decision, ruling that the statutory requirement for the deduction was met despite the timeline of the work relative to occupancy.

Skatteverket hade godkänt makarna X och Y:s rättelseyrkande och beviljat hushållsavdrag åt vardera för ombyggnadsarbete av egnahemshus som makarna hade låtit utföra före inflyttningen. Skatteombudet hade i sina besvär yrkat att skatterättelsebesluten skulle upphävas och att de ordinarie beskattningarna skulle bringas ikraft. Skatteombudet ansåg att bostaden borde ha tagits i bruk innan arbetet hade utförts för att hushållsavdrag skulle ha kunnat beviljas.
