Questão jurídica principal
Whether the direct child pension paid to the adult child is taxable to the retired parent.
Decisão extraída
Yes. The pension is taxable to the person entitled to the old-age pension, here the father, even if paid directly to the adult child.
Fundamentação extraída
Under the AVS and cantonal pension rules, the parent remains the beneficiary of the child pension; the child is only the direct recipient. The situation is unlike an orphan's pension because the entitled parent is still alive.
