Derzeit bestehen in Einzelfällen Probleme in der Bereitstellung von Änderungslisten.

Innerhalb dieser Menge von Einzelfällen sind einige Fälle mit einem fehlerhaften Verfahrenshinweis (VH 552010100) abgelehnt worden.
Betroffenen Arbeitgebern wird sowohl in den Fällen des fehlerhaften Verfahrenshinweises als auch bei Ausbleiben der Änderungsliste keine erneute Datenübermittlung empfohlen.
Das BZSt informiert, sobald das Problem behoben wurde und die fehlerhaft abgewiesenen Anmeldungen erneut übermittelt werden können.

Im Falle ausbleibender Änderungslisten gelten die Regeln der Rn 88 des BMF-Schreibens vom 13.12.2024 „elektronische Lohnsteuerabzugsmerkmale“.
