Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the meal allowance paid by the employer had to be included in the insured person's valid income for invalidity assessment.
Decisione estratta
The meal allowance was cost reimbursement, not wage income, and therefore not part of the valid income.
Motivazione estratta
The contract labeled the payment as a spesenvergütung for out-of-home meals; the monthly amounts varied, indicating reimbursement of expenses rather than concealed salary. Under AHV rules, expense reimbursements are not massgebender Lohn.
