With the Pnrr decree also came another novelty for the Isee declaration, namely that administrations will retrieve information directly from the National Digital Data Platform (Pdnd), querying the Inps databases. The Dsu, however, will have to be presented

Versione italiana

Last day to declare one's economic situation and thus take advantage of the measures included in the latest Budget Law. The deadline for submitting the Dichiarazione sostitutiva unica (Dsu) is today, 28 February, and it is possible to take advantage of some novelties for the calculation of the Isee in order to gain access to more substantial benefits.and without it, you may lose economic benefits.

News in the Manoeuvre

The Manovra has changed the calculation methods. The first change concerns the raising of the deductible on the value of the main home, which rises to 91,500 euro and to 120,000 euro for households residing in one of the 14 metropolitan cities. To these amounts is added an increase of 2,500 euro for each cohabiting child after the first.

The equivalence scales also changed: 0.1 in the case of a household with two children; 0.25 in the case of three children; 0.40 in the case of four children; and 0.55 in the case of at least five children. Compared to the current rule, therefore, a specific surcharge is also introduced for the case of a household with two children and each of the other specific surcharges in question is increased by 0.5.

For the pre-filled SUDs, the automatic exclusion of government securities, postal savings bonds and postal savings books from movable assets up to €50,000 per household is confirmed. While, for the presentation of the Dsu in self-declared mode, the exclusion must be made by the declarant.

The Single Cheque

All these changes change the benefits to be received. Among the benefits there is above all the Single Inclusion Allowance. Without having submitted the Dsu, Inps proceeds to pay the allowance but at the minimum (i.e. 58.3 euro per child).

Most Italians do not believe there are more benefits

A parenthesis on the news that came with the Budget Law 2026 concerns public awareness. Which, two months after the approval of the Manoeuvre, is still low. According to a survey conducted by the start-up FunniFin on a sample of workers, 70 per cent believe that the new calculation will not change anything in their lives.

The question was submitted to about five thousand users on the platform, recalling the measures that came with the manoeuvre. A group of people who, by the way, are under 45 years old. 'The problem,' explains Leonardo Capotosto, co-founder of FunniFin, 'is that the average Italian has very little financial education. You have to listen to professionals who present you with objective data, then it's up to people to make a decision. Employees have to manage these things: that's where you have to intervene and we provide help to do that. We need to democratise access to information'.

News for the Isee procedure

Recently, further novelties have been included with regard to the Isee. Not in the Manovra, this time, but in the Pnrr decree, which is already in force. More than new benefits, it is a change to the procedure for applying for benefits. From now on, with the automatic Isee, it will be universities, schools and the public administration in general that will directly retrieve information from the National Digital Data Platform (Pdnd), interrogating the Inps databases. Information that administrations will only be able to find if citizens submit the Dichiarazione sostitutiva unica
