Hey, Thank you for watching. Erstattung means you are going to get some money back from Finanzamt. You can go ahead and make that restaurant reservation.;) If you belong to the category where its mandatory for you to file a tax return, then you need to do it before the tax deadline. Otherwise you have 4 years to file your return. Hope that helps.:)

Hey Debora, 1. Ideally, you have to enter the details of both companies in the tax statement. Self-employed people should additionally fill the Anlage S. 2. In attachment Haushaltsnahe Aufwendungen 3. In attachment Außergewöhnliche Belastungen 4. As Werbung kosten in Attachment N. There are separate fields depending on whether the price is above or less than 800€. This is the information I am aware of. I could also be wrong. Please confirm by yourself or with a tax advisor before you use this information. :)

@SrijithKariyattil
8 ай бұрын
Hey Ankit, A tax number or Steuer Nummer is assigned by your local tax office to categorize your documents and make the process faster. Your tax number is different from your tax id. Your Tax Id or Steuer ID, a unique 11-digit number you got during your first registration or Anmeldung in Germany. This is a permanent number and will never change in your life term, irrespective of your personal or professional status. But your tax number is a 10 digit number and can change when you move your residence and come under the jurisdiction of a different tax office or if you change your professional status from an employee to an employer. If you have been paying income taxes until now, you will probably have a tax number assigned to you by the tax office. If that's the case, then enter that number here. If you don't already have a tax number, select the option "Neue Steuer Nummer beantragen" and select the land and the finanzamt or the tax office where you belong. You can easily find a responsible tax office by just googling with your address. A tax number will be sent to you later by post. You can enter it then. Hope that helps. :)

Hey Dalim, Since the electronic income tax certificate is issued by your employer, the first step would be to contact them. Normally, they can quickly issue you with a replacement document, as they are obliged to store the data for 10 years. If you cannot or do not want to contact your employer for any reason, you can also contact your tax office, as they have received the data electronically from the employer. If you only need the lohnsteuerbescheinigung to prepare your tax return, you can also get these information from your December or your last payroll. The values are also recorded here. The details in Einkommensteuererklärung is required for filing your tax return. Hope this helps. And do share the video with others who would be in need of this information. It would also help me and the channel.:)

Hi Srijith, Thanks for the useful video. I've below question about income tax return. 1. May I know how to track status of income tax return? (Is there any email address, contact number) 2. From the applied online income tax, within how many days you will get notified about tax amount return and how we can get notified?

Hey, Thank you for reaching out. 1. There is no way that I am aware of to track the status of your income tax return. You can always ask your local Finanzamt directly, but most probably, they will say it is under processing. 2. Tax assessment usually takes 4 to 12 weeks, but this can also vary based on individual cases. Hope that helps. :)

Thanks you very much for your clear explanation, I'm really impressed and make me easy to apply tax returns in Germany. Still, I need a small favor for applying parents support, It's asking 11 digit numbers for my parents, where should I find this 11 numerical number? Looking forward for your valuable feedback.

Hey, Thank you.:), Yes, you can file the tax return for year 2022. If you are legally required to file a return, then you have time until 02.10.2023 to do it with Elster. If you are taking the assistance of a tax advisor, then the deadline extends to 29.02.2024. If you are not legally required to file a tax return, then you have time until 31.12.2026. Hope that helps.:)

Hi Srijith, this is very very helpful to fill the forms. Could you please share the link here for those with family and kids. Also If we relocated to the Germany from another EU country. Which section should I enter the details? Can claim amount we spent on flight tickets, visa fee and baggage shipping to join the new job in Germany.

Hey, I will share the link to the video as soon as I am done with it. If you move for work-related reasons, the expenses for the move can be deducted from tax as business expenses or werbungkosten. You can enter this in Elster Form N in section "14 - Weitere Werbungskosten".

It's showing to enter 10 digit Stuernummer but I'm having a 11 digits Stuernummer ID Nummer. What should I do?
@SrijithKariyattil
8 ай бұрын
Hey Tony, A tax number or Steuer Nummer is assigned by your local tax office to categorize your documents and make the process faster. Your tax number is different from your tax id. Your Tax Id or Steuer ID, a unique 11-digit number you got during your first registration or Anmeldung in Germany. This is a permanent number and will never change in your life term, irrespective of your personal or professional status. But your tax number is a 10 digit number and can change when you move your residence and come under the jurisdiction of a different tax office or if you change your professional status from an employee to an employer. If you have been paying income taxes until now, you will probably have a tax number assigned to you by the tax office. If that's the case, then enter that number here. If you don't already have a tax number, select the option "Neue Steuer Nummer beantragen" and select the land and the finanzamt or the tax office where you belong. You can easily find a responsible tax office by just googling with your address. A tax number will be sent to you later by post. You can enter it then. Hope that helps. :)

Hi , Thank you so much for the explanation, it is clear, I would like to know how to file in case I have switched jobs in 2023, and I have 2 Lohnsteuerbescheinigung, one from january to april, and for the second job from april to december ? Thanks in advance.

Hey, Thank you for your support. A single employer is normally the case with a lot of people and hence I took that as an example. In case you worked with more companies in one calendar year, then you can just click on “weitere Daten hinzufügen” button in page 2 of Anlage N and enter the details from each of the additional income tax certificates. Hope that helps.:)

Hey, There is no entitlement as such. On average people get some money in return. But it largely depends on your personal situation and expenses. So you can fill the form and see for yourself and then decide whether to file a return or not.

@SrijithKariyattil

Hey, I am not familiar with this situation. Sorry. But most probably you may have to enter the interest you acquired from the savings account as an additional income. Taxes will be calculated by the Finanzamt. Better would be to get the help of a professional tax advisor.

Hey Asim, I didn’t cover this since it was not a common use case. I think there is an option (Angaben zu einer weiteren Lohnsteuerbescheinigung erfassen) in Attachment N of Elster online, to add details from a second Lohnsteuerbescheinigung.

Hey Maninder, In that case, you can also contact your tax office , as they would have received a copy of the data electronically from the company. They could send you a new printout. If you only need the payroll tax certificate to prepare your tax return, you can also get the data from your December payslip. The total values are also recorded here. Hope that helps.:)

Hi, I have some amount in position 28. Beiträge zur privaten Kranken- und Pflegepflichtversicherung oder Mindestvorsorgepauschale in my Lohnsteuerbescheinigung. Should I enter this amount somewhere or not? I'm thinking about Anlage Vorsorgeaufwand / 3 - Beiträge zur inländischen privaten Kranken- und Pflegeversicherung and somewhere here?
@SrijithKariyattil
Жыл бұрын
Hi, As per my understanding, this need not be entered anywhere. The value is only important for you to recognize whether you may be obliged to submit a declaration because your actual expenses are lower than the minimum pension fee taken into account by the employer in the income tax deduction. You can enter your KV and PV contributions accordingly in Anlage Vorsorgeaufwand. But I could be wrong. Please confirm with a tax advisor.:)
