Correction of errors in RED News Bulletin 2008/1 of 4 February

The RED News Bulletin 2008/1, of 4 February 2008 has been corrected as follows:

• In the "Contribution specifications relating to Law 20/2007, of 11 July, on the Statute of the Self-Employed Worker” section, "Standardised TC2 and Abbreviated TC2" point, second paragraph, in which it was indicated that:
  “The amounts under this code in the column for Deductions or Compensation are added up in the box Allowances/Reductions from INEM”. The amounts in this box shall be accumulated in box 601 of the statements TC1, TC1/4, TC1/16 and TC1/25. In the case of TC1/3, TC1/8 and TC1/19, the amounts shall be accumulated in box 610 of the tax return".
  
  the standard form TC1/8 should be omitted, as it corresponds to the Special Scheme for Agricultural Workers, not included in this regulation.
  
  The paragraph would read as follows:
  
  The amounts under this code in the column for Deductions or Compensation are added up in the box Allowances/Reductions from INEM. The amounts in this box shall be accumulated in box 601 of the statements TC1, TC1/4, TC1/16 and TC1/25. In the case of TC1/3 and TC1/19, the amounts shall be accumulated in box 610 of the tax return".
  

• In the section, “Main features arising from the publication of Order TAS/26/2007, which implements the 2008 regulations for Social Security contributions for Unemployment, the Wage Guarantee Fund and Occupational Training”, point 6.1 “Contributions for Unemployment and the Wage Guarantee Fund in the Special Scheme for Agricultural Workers”

for permanently employed workers, the following clarification has been omitted:

“As of 1 July 2008, the contribution rate for unemployment set in the previous paragraph will be:

CONTRIBUTIONS FOR UNEMPLOYMENT IN THE S. AGRICULTURAL S. - PERMANENT WORKERS EMPLOYED BY ANOTHER PERSON
