Procedure details

Are you a self-employed artist or journalist and insured through the Künstlersozialkasse (KSK) or eligible for subsidies? If so, you must report your expected income from your self-employed artistic or journalistic activities once a year.

This information always refers to the coming year and represents the basis for calculating the monthly contributions or subsidies.

When submitting your income estimate, please note:

  • To determine your expected earned income, take into account both your experience from previous years' profits and losses and the future order situation.
  • Always state your income estimate in full euro amounts.
  • If you expect a loss, enter EUR 0 as your expected earned income.

If you do not submit the income estimate in time, you will jeopardize your insurance status or your entitlement to a subsidy. Furthermore, not submitting the income estimate on time is an administrative offense that can be punished with a fine.

  • You must currently be subject to compulsory insurance via the KSK.
  • The KSK has asked you to submit your income declaration.

  • Required Documents

    Sie müssen keine zusätzlichen Unterlagen einreichen.

You will receive a request by mail from the KSK to submit your income declaration. You can do this either online or by mail.

If you want to submit your income declaration online:

  • Go to the KSK website.
  • Go to the "Report annual income online" section.
  • There, enter your insurance number and authentication code (both of which can be found on the request to submit your projected annual income).
  • Note that the authentication code is only valid once.
  • You will then be shown the page for submitting your declaration.
  • You will need to enter your annual declaration in euros there and also repeat the amount again.
  • Please check your art area and follow the further instructions directly on the input page.
  • Finally, please enter your e-mail address, repeat this information in the fields provided and confirm the instructions for insured persons and the data protection information.
  • You will receive a confirmation of the successful submission of your expected earned income and can also make a printout for your records at this point.
  • At the conclusion of online reporting, you will receive an email confirmation.

If you wish to submit your income declaration in writing:

  • Complete the Expected Employment Income Submission Form in its entirety.
  • Be sure to follow all instructions that were sent to you with the request.
  • Sign the form.
  • Please do not provide any additional information on the form.
  • Send the form to the KSK.
  • You will not receive an acknowledgement of receipt for submitting your declaration.

There are no costs for you.

The notification of the expected earned income for the following calendar year must be made by 1.12. in each case.

The notification you submit will be saved immediately. You will receive notification of your new monthly contribution in good time for the due date of the January contribution.

  • Objection. Detailed information on how to file an objection can be found in the January contribution notice.
