DIVA, taxes open applications for education compensation - Administration clarifies procedures and necessary documentation

The tax administration has opened applications for the benefit of the compensation value for children's education, for all those individuals who completed the DIVA and resulted in overpaid tax after deducting expenses worth 48 thousand lek or 100 thousand lek per year.
The tax administration explained that as previously announced, the application will be made through the online e-Filing system. After submitting the request, the compensation from the beneficiary individuals will be transferred to their bank accounts that they will declare through the application.
So, after completing the Individual Income Tax Declaration, DIVA 2025, all individuals who have resulted in overpaid tax after deducting expenses for children worth 48 thousand lek per year or 100,000 lek from their annual income, can begin filling out the application form to benefit from compensation.
The tax administration explained that after logging into the e-Tax system, to create a case such as a refund request, one will click on the eFiling module, selecting My Cases, which will be clicked on.
After you have created a new issue, the identification document number for the completed DIVA and an unfilled white form will appear, where the text of the request for refund of the overpaid tax (according to the value displayed in DIVA) will be filled in.
Tax authorities have announced that it is expected that the entire procedure for completing the application form will be explained through an instructional video.
The value of the compensation is automatically calculated by the system. The e-Tax system automatically calculates the value of the compensation after the income declaration is made, even for those individuals who are not required to do so.
The deadline for applying for compensation is up to 3 months after completing the DIVA.
