AADE benefits: heating allowance, tax relief, support

AADE (the Independent Authority for Public Revenue) is Greece's tax administration. Through it come the heating allowance, tax exemptions and reductions, and support payments based on the tax return. Here is every AADE benefit we list, with amounts, eligibility and a link to the official source.
