Análisis tributario de los beneficiarios del Subsidio de Vivienda en el territorio colombiano

Abstract

The tax legislation in Colombia contains some complex technicalities to understand regarding the treatment to be given to certain aspects in the income tax return by taxpayers. For this reason, this research analyzes the tax treatment of housing subsidies granted by family compensation funds in Colombia. The main objective is to identify the reasons why these subsidies are not deductible, exempt income or income not constituting income, but are considered as taxable income for the beneficiary individuals. The causes and effects of this tax classification will be examined, including potential penalties for disregarding their treatment in the income tax return. In addition, the criteria used to determine deductions, exempt income and income not constituting income according to current regulations are detailed. The research uses the Delphi Method to consult professionals specialized in the tax field and to obtain a clearer analysis regarding the development of the specific objectives set forth. In conclusion, the study provides an analysis of the tax treatment of housing subsidies and their impact on the personal finances of the beneficiaries, in addition to exposing the considerations of the tax administration for their current classification.
