Sending a tax return to the tax office is definitely not something you do off the cuff – especially when it comes to one's own finances. And when specialised knowledge is required, it’s understandable that one would want to be cautious or even sceptical.
For questions that require explanation, Taxfix offers info texts and corresponding advice articles or tax tips. These help with general questions on specific points, but not with individual tax questions.
Yes, you can now choose to only pay after you receive your estimated refund calculation, which is free of charge. The processing of tax returns usually takes 6-12 weeks. Your selected bank account will then be debited automatically. However, you will only be offered this option if you have done your taxes yourself with Taxfix, or if you have used the instant payment option.
If you use our Expert Service, you can also choose to only pay when you receive the tax assessment from the tax office.
