ZUS sent refusal decisions: On the weekend of January 11-12 ZUS started shipping 23 thousand negative decisions regarding the award holidays contributions. They can be found on the profile in PUE ZUS/eZUS. Decisions concern both total and partial refusals. In the latter case, ZUS reassures us that some refusals to be partially exempt from paying contributions may have their source in the system's algorithm.
This is where the algorithm could have gone wrong: These are decisions that grant exemption from paying mandatory contributions (for pension, disability and accident insurance) and at the same time refuse exemption from voluntary sickness insurance, despite being subject to this insurance in the month of submitting the application. application and the month preceding it. – In such a situationwhen applicants apply for voluntary sickness insurance on time, they will receive the full amount of sick leave. As part of the self-audit, ZUS will take into account the exemption from paying this contribution, and the payer will be informed about it – says Wojciech DÄ…brówka, ZUS spokesman.
