The statement, according to Income calendar 2025you will begin to be able to do it on April 8.

Therefore, it is important to know them to know if they affect you. Income News 2025 Below we leave you a list with the four new features that you will find in this Income tax return that we are going to carry out in 2026. They are the following: New deduction for low-income workers: Taxpayers who receive income from work less than 18,276 euros per year and do not have other income greater than 6,500 euros may apply a new deduction of up to 340 euros. 340 euros is the maximum for those who receive the Minimum Interprofessional Wage, and it gradually decreases until it disappears at the upper limit of income. Tax incentives for sustainability: Deductions are maintained for the purchase of electric vehicles, installation of charging points and energy efficiency improvements in homes. Thus, if you invest in sustainable solutions, your tax burden will be reduced. Higher taxation for higher savings income: Those who have more, must pay more. Capital income (dividends, interest, capital gains) that exceeds 300,000 euros will be taxed at the maximum rate of 30%.

Of course, the structure of sections of the general tax base is maintained, these small changes have simply been introduced.

The new Qualcomm chip for PC is a declaration of intent: more intelligence than power

Qualcomm has taken advantage of the CES 2026 to present the Snapdragon NPU reaches 80 TOPS and it proclaims itself as the world’s fastest for laptops. Why is it important. This launch does not specifically confront anything that Intel or AMD have, but rather it is a positioning play: Qualcomm is betting on energy efficiency and integrated AI as its differential weapons, not on dethroning anyone in benchmarks. This is the chip that wants to colonize the mid-high range of Windows laptops, not the 17-inch clunkers for gamers. Between the lines. The figures are curiously contradictory: Qualcomm talks about a 35% jump in CPU but a 78% improvement in the NPU. There is the implicit message: Qualcomm knows that part of the future does not involve winning in traditional processing, but rather mastering computing. Local AI. In other words, Qualcomm has decided that one of the next PC battles will not be fought in Photoshop, but in applications that run LLMs or generate images offline. The 3nm node and memory LPDDR5X up to 152 GB reinforce this narrative: Qualcomm is building machines to work all day without a plug, not sedentary workstations, so to speak. It is an explicit commitment to the user profile that values ​​autonomy and instant response over sustained power. Yes, but. The problem continues to be the ecosystem: Windows on ARM It has improved, but it still has incompatibilities with professional software. Adobe works, yes, but the market goes further. Qualcomm can have the best chip on the market for efficiency… and still be irrelevant if developers don’t optimize for its architecture. Apple managed to overcome the latter in 2020 because it controls the silicon, the operating system and the hardware: without transition there was no business with the new Macs. Qualcomm has to convince third parties. The context. This release arrives while Intel tries to recover lost ground and AMD consolidates its dominance in high-performance laptops. But neither has the mobile DNA that Qualcomm does. It is a company that comes from the world of the smartphone, where efficiency is not optional but existential. That background is their advantage: they have been making powerful chips that don’t fry eggs in your pocket for decades, not to mention modifying the phrase slightly and making it sound worse. The threat. For Intel and AMD, the danger is not that Qualcomm will take market share from them tomorrow, but that it will normalize ARM on Windows. If the average user begins to associate “laptop with a good battery” with “it has a Qualcomm chip”, the x86 architecture is at risk of losing its last stronghold of absolute dominion. And that is a structural change, not a temporary one.

It is not just the finest iPhone in history. It is a declaration of intentions

He iPhone Air It has something. Before I imagined it, but now that I have been able to have it in my hands and play a little while with him, I have it clear. It is the thinner iPhone that the firm has made in its history, less than the iPhone 6 of which It is impossible not to remember When you hold it in your hand and think “because it is fine.” We will have to wait for the analysis to issue a more resounding verdict on the terminal, but while it arrives, and after having had the opportunity to try it in Apple’s central offices in London, here are first impressions. A surprise. Holding the iPhone Air for the first time is strange. Accustomed to mobiles of 180-200 grams, such as iPhone 16 Pro With which I have taken the photos that accompany this text, it is surprisingly pleasant to grab a mobile and discover that it weighs only 156 grams. It is light, very light, so I expected it to transmit a certain sense of fragility, but no. It is one of those difficult things to explain with words, but despite its small thickness the iPhone Air does not seem “to break.” On the contrary. Yes, it is very finite and yes, the plateau stands out enough | Image: Xataka Obviously, I had no occasion to try to leave it because it is something that no user in their healthy judgment would. If I could take it in my pocket of jeans and do things like sitting or moving my legs fast, and the feeling is positive. Honestly, although the initial reflection is to treat it carefully, the truth is that I lost fear quite fast. Is it comfortable? Another important issue when we talk about fine devices is that they may not be ergonomic. Because? Because they are nailed in the palm of the hand, through the area under the thumb, when holding them. This does not happen with the iPhone Air. It is true that it shows different from a normal iPhone, but at no time has it seemed uncomfortable to use it for a long time. Anyway, we will see it calmly in the analysis. Under this relief there are practically all the components of the iPhone Air | Image: Xataka The Plateau. You have to recognize that the name is much more Fancy that “cameras module”, but this time makes sense. This generous protuberance located at the top of the device not only hides the (unique) rear camera, but inside everything is, or almost everything, what gives life to the mobile. It is the most compact and dense motherboard that Apple has made to date on an iPhone. Everything else, everything we normally call “back”, is for the battery. The firm has done an impressive miniaturization and compaction exercise, but has also made sacrifices. Apple is aware that the autonomy of the iPhone Air will not be, by far, that of a iPhone 17 or a iPhone 17 Prohence the Battery pack It seems like a necessary accessory. The camera, of course, is also limited in quantity, while it has neither telephoto nor wide angle. Is it a problem? It will depend on the user, but I don’t think anyone who expects an incombustible battery and the best market camera even think about the iPhone Air. That, and the imperative need to use a esimof course. Image | Xataka Eye to the touch. I could get used to Ceramic Shield, the material from which the rear is made. It is very pleasant to the touch, very soft, and the footprints are not marked. Another story is the upper plateau crystal that, especially in dark models, full of footprints just looking at it. And dances? A bit. As in the Google Pixel 10that the camera module covers the entire width of the mobile helps the terminal not dance so much, but the lens excels slightly from the plateau, so when they leave it face down on a table it is possible that a tad moves. If we are going to put a cover, which most users will do, this will not be a bigger problem. However, buying the finest iPhone in history to put a cover is, as little, paradoxical (although not less necessary). The colors available | Image: Xataka The camera. Carets outside: The new square sensor of the iPhone 17 is absolutely insane And I have no evidence (no doubt) that it will end up becoming a standard in the industry. It makes sense, all the meaning of the world. Such a sensor allows us to record video or take out horizontal selfies holding the mobile vertical, but also gives us advantage in terms of stabilization. We will try it in depth later, but what we have seen points out. The rear camera, meanwhile, has 48 megapixels of resolution. We have neither great angle nor telephoto. Apple ensures that the camera offers optical quality in Zoom X2 and, although it is true that we are not making cropping to use, the truth is that this camera loses versatility. In black is beautiful | Image: Xataka The beginning of something else. The iPhone Air is a statement of intentions. When you see it from the front and side, it is impossible not to think about how well another iPhone Air would sit next to a hinge. We do not know if we will see a folding iPhone somedaybut if we see it surely this is your seed. Time will tell if the iPhone Air Cuaja and gets break the curse of the fourth iPhone. At the moment, Apple has a very well -finished and interesting device in hands that, however, we will have to look with a magnifying glass to see how we give it a little more of the account. The thickness and weight are fine, but there are obvious sacrifices in autonomy and photography that, surely, play against them. Be … Read more

This will be a postal letter that will arrive by asking you to contribute invoices of deduced expenses, fiscal certificates, information on money movements, or what they consider necessary.

But there are some that vary according to the Autonomous Community, and if you have deduced in the statement something that does not correspond or something for which you have not provided the necessary information, they will require invoices or more information to verify it. Housing rental. When you rent a house you have an income that is not invoiced as such, so at the beginning of the rent it is possible that you request the contract and the payment receipts so that the deduction is applied in a correct way. It will be verified that everything is as indicated in the papers. Cryptocurrencies. The Tax Agency increasingly proves the movements you can do with cryptocurrencies, and it is very important that you declare them properly in the rent to know the benefits you have been able to have with them and that you apply the corresponding IRPF percentage. Debts with administration: On some occasions, although the statement is correct, the return can also be delayed in the event that you have any debt with the Treasury, the Social Security, your City Council or even fines unpaid with the DGT. If so, these will be discounted from the deduction. If any of these cases occurs, the officials of the Tax Agency will take extra time to check your data, and will send you a requirement to ask for extra information if they see it necessary. Hacienda has until December 31, 2025 To perform the returns, that is, they may take it easy. In Xataka Basics | 2024 rent guide: calendar, previous steps and how to prepare for the 2025 statement

A declaration of intentions? What the closure of the APK tells about Spotify its sudden restrictive turn

Spotify was founded in 2006 and it has not been until 2024 that has managed to be profitable. He has had gusts with green -green quarter and others in red, but this year has been the year, in capital and bold. This is a great news for the company, undoubtedly, and a tremendous chance that is right now, in full bonanza, when you have decided to stop that … Countless call Spotify modified APK. And that is right now, in this context, it is a small Leave vu of something we have already lived. Spotify what? It is no secret that looking for the right words on the Internet, any user could reach a modified Spotify application. An fully functional and illegitimate app that, in a nutshell, eliminated one of the great restrictions of the Spotify free plan: choose what song to listen. 27 Spotify tricks – Control your whole music like nobody! As every free service user will know, non -subscribers can only listen to music in random. They cannot choose which song reproduce, but choose a list and let the random mode do their own. In addition, only the songs can jump a few times and, of course, they are forced to listen to advertising. The modified APK eliminated advertising, allowed to choose songs and jump the songs as many times as we would like. Spotify benefits and losses | Image: Xataka The end. And if we talk in the past it is because Spotify, abruptly, without prior notice and from one day to another, has decided to take action on the matter. From a stroke, it has made these modified applications stop working. That has caused the users who used them and look for alternatives, thus creating An excellent culture broth for cybercriminals. Spoiler: Download a modified Spotify application is synonymous with potential problems. Leave vu. Obviating that the use of this application breaches the terms and conditions of the service and the user agreement, it is still striking that this decision has been applied overnight. Spotify is in his entire right, there is plenty of saying, but it is the accumulation of situations and the precedents that attracts attention. Streaming platforms, starting with Netflix and then all the others, decided overnight end the shared accounts. The difference is that Netflix did it when it went through a pothole, while Spotify has decided to stop the modified APKs while on the wave crest. Spotify has 675 million users of which 263 million are paying. Surely the impact of the modified APK is minimal, but its blocking is 1) normal and 2) a possible declaration of intentions. Image: Fábio Alves in UNSPLASH What if Spotify is getting serious? Now that Spotify has managed to be profitable, perhaps he is thinking of putting the points on the ís to all those users who violate their service. Using a modified APK is a clear violation of the terms and conditions of use, so it was evident that this was going to happen sooner or later, but there is something else that is a common practice in the service and through which Spotify has only passed on tiptoe. The shared accounts. The melon of shared family accounts has been opened several times, but it has never finished solving. Spotify Let it clear that the family plan is for up to six family members who live in the same direction, but the reality is that the verification system It is easily drawable. Spotify only verifies the introduced address, but does not seem to follow up like the one that does, for example, Netflix. Spotify shared family accounts have long been in the peephole, but their misuse has been passed. At least for now Spotify can surely know without much problem that your “family” of “six members” is distributed between Madrid, Barcelona, ​​Seville and a colleague who is from Erasmus in Brussels although all, for practical purposes, live in the same direction as the administrator. He simply lets him be, and that will be so until Spotify decide to stop being. And maybe that moment is now a little closer being, in any case, a risky movement. Spotify is alone. Especially since Spotify is a service that depends entirely on subscriptions and advertising. Apple Music, Amazon Music or YouTube Music have behind companies that sell and/or offer other more lucrative products or services than the musical product itself. Spotify, however, does not have that support and play with the number of subscribers is more movie. Image | Pexels Although Netflix has been afraid. Although users put themselves on a war on social networks and ink rivers were written about it, The reality is that Netflix has been great His crusade against shared accounts and the free plan with advertising. 55% of the new highs bet on the cheap plan with ads and the end of shared accounts have made the platform reach 300 million subscribers. Perhaps the end of the modified APK is the beginning of a new stage in Spotify. One in which shared accounts are with relatives, and with no one; one with high definition sound (plan that does not finish arriving) and one in which, finally, streaming music is profitable. Or maybe not, but the background is what they are. Cover image | Cottonbro Studio In Xataka | The great surprise of the Pódcast is not that people are listening to them. Is that he is seeing them
