Last June, Bernese national councilor Marc Jost, member of the Swiss Evangelical Party (PEV), tabled a postulate questioning the practices of the cantons in terms of deductibility of donations made “to associations with multiple purposes”. Understand by this: the evangelical Churches united in association pursuing religious, but also social, goals.
At the end of August, the Federal Council undertook to present the requested inventory, namely “to determine whether there are differences in practice between the cantons” and “to compare the way in which donations to associations are treated for multiple purposes or in favor of national Churches. It will also rule “on the relevance of a modification of the Federal Law on Direct Federal Tax (LIFD) which would aim to exempt from tax donations in favor of associations with multiple purposes or religious purposes”.
