You only need to disclose your spouse's/cohabitant's business result here if the income is taxed as personal income. For example, if the income is taxed as capital income, you must state it on the page showing capital income.  

Enter the income and whether your spouse/cohabitant is active or passive in the operation of the business
You must enter your spouse's/cohabitant's income from self-employment (business result) for the period in which you receive a state pension.

You must declare whether the income comes from a business where your spouse/cohabitant is active or passive in the operation. Whether your spouse/cohabitant is active or passive in the operation is important for the calculation of your state pension.

You are active in the operation of a business if you perform tasks in the business yourself.

If you do not perform tasks or the work effort is very limited, you are passive in the operation. For example, you are basically passive in your operations if you have a passive investment in a rental property.

Please note that in the indicative calculation we only need information about your spouse's/cohabitant's income from passive participation in the operation. When you apply for a state pension, you must also disclose your spouse's/cohabitant's income, if any, from active participation in the operation.

If your spouse/cohabitant has one business
If your spouse/cohabitant has income from one business, the entire income must be disclosed either as active or as passive participation in the operation of the business. Thus, income should not be divided between active or passive – even if it is linked to both active and passive work performance. Here, it will be the total income and operating conditions that determine whether the income should be disclosed either as passive or active participation in the operation. 

If your spouse/cohabitant has multiple businesses
If your spouse/cohabitant has multiple businesses, you must distribute the total business profit in proportion to the share earned in the company/companies where your spouse/cohabitant is active and how much is earned in the company(s) where your spouse/cohabitant is passive.

Your spouse's/cohabitant's earned income is not included in the calculation of your state pension
When your spouse/cohabitant takes an active part in the operation, the income is considered earned income (income from personal work) and should therefore not be included in the calculation of your state pension. However, you still need to declare the income, as it is included in the income base of the personal supplement percentage, which is used to calculate elderly cheque, health supplement, heating supplement and media cheque. 

If the income comes from a business in which your spouse/cohabitant participates passively in the operation, the income will still be included in the calculation of your state pension. 

If you are in doubt whether the income from your spouse's/cohabitant's business should be equated with earned income, you are welcome to contact Udbetaling Danmark.
