Szydło: Government to raise tax-free income in several stages

"Most likely, the government will submit a plan to raise the amount of tax-free income (PIT) in several stages," announced PM Beata Szydło. According to Prime Minister, the government intends to provide a slightly different solution on the tax-free amount, than the President offered (PLN 8,000 for all taxpayers). "Taking into account the situation of public finances, we will probably offer to install that amount. I believe the government must increase the tax-free amount for people who have the lowest incomes first; it will primarily help Polish retirees, who have very low pensions at the moment," Beata Szydło elaborated.
