Difference between revisions of "ISEE Procedure"

Revision as of 21:57, 27 February 2022

The procedure of requesting an ISEE is the same for Italian citizens and not-Italian citizens. However, not-Italian citizens must complete some preliminary procedures, like appoint Italy as their Residence country.

In this context, a resident in Italy is a person who has been registered at the registry office (in Italian “ufficio anagrafe") and has a valid permit of stay. In any case, in order to carry out any INPS procedure you are required to own a SPID or, alternatively, a PIN DISPOSITIVO (which nowadays is available/recommended only for people with residence outside of Italy.

You can find the same information at section 12.3 of the Vademecum.

Italian citizens

To begin with you need to possess a SPID or a CIE (carta d'identità elettronica).

You can obtain the ISEE on your own from here (more info about the detailed procedure is coming). If you prefer to receive some help in compiling the forms, you can call a CAF (center for fiscal assistance) for an appointment. Any CAF is fine, though the student representatives recommend the CAF-UIL located at Via Polonio 5, tel.:+39040638251. There, you should present the documentation needed and ask for the “reduced ISEE for PhD students" (in Italian “ISEE ridotto per dottorandi").“ISEE ridotto" takes into account only your personal financial resources without considering your entire family. It is very likely that it will allow you to benefit from a greater discount. All the process will likely be in Italian, ask an Italian friend or one of the representatives for help if necessary. They can also help you in case the CAF incorrectly refuses to ask for the “ISEE ridotto".

The following is a list of what you have to provide to get your ISEE:

• your fiscal code (“Codice Fiscale”)
• a valid identity card
• your income of two years ago (i.e., if we are in 2021, you should provide your incomes for the year 2019) even if they was not taxed (i.e.: you should provide your PhD fellowship, which can be found at this website -access with usual SISSA credentials-, and eventual part-time positions at Universities and/or SISSA)
• owned property for residential purposes during the last year and/or paid rent during the last year
• balance and average stocks of all your bank accounts for the last year
• certification of your disabilities
• vehicles registration numbers (if they have 500 cc or more), boats owned

Note that if you present documents which display currencies different from the euro you have to convert them according to the average annual exchange rate.

Not-Italian citizens

If you belong to this category, you can take two different roads. We recommend the second one, as it provides you documents useful for other bureaucratic procedures.

• ask for PIN DISPOSITIVO and obtain the ISEE through INPS website
• obtain a SPID or a CIE, which accounts to:

1. Obtain the permit of stay and the health insurance card
2. ask for PIN DISPOSITIVO through INPS website or by through the office in via San’Anastasio, in order to enroll to gestioneseparata (needed to pay taxes on the salary)
3. Once you have the permit of stay card, you can start the procedure to move you residence in Italy (it will take around 45 days to be completed)
4. Purchase the CIE (cost of 22€)
5. Finally ask for SPID

Once you have the SPID or CIE, you can call a CAF with an agreement with ARDIS and then provide them with the documentation needed. These documents must be either translated or certified by an Italian consulate in your home country.

What follows is a list of what you have to provide to get your ISEE:

• certification of the family composition
• certification of the incomes of yourself and your family from two years ago (i.e.,if we are in 2021, you should provide your income from the year 2019) even if they was not taxed (i.e., you should provide your PhD fellowship, which can be found at this website -access with usual SISSA credentials-, and eventual part-time positions with Universities and/or SISSA)
• owned properties for residential purposes and/or the rent paid from the last year belonging to any member of your family
• balance and average stocks of all bank accounts belonging to any member of your family for the last year
• certification of disabilities rated over 66% of any member of your family
• your fiscal code

Note that if you present documents which display currencies different from the euro you have to convert them according to the average annual exchange rate. This website lists all the CAFs with an agreement with ARDIS. Make sure to choose a CAF located in Trieste! As mentioned above, the call will likely be in Italian, ask an Italian friend or one of the representatives for help if necessary.
