Proposed simplified return
If your tax situation is stable, you may receive a proposal for a simplified tax return. In this case, you will in principle need no longer to file a tax return.
What is the proposed simplified return?
In principle, all taxpayers have to complete their tax return each year. However, another procedure has been introduced for taxpayers whose tax situation tends to remain more or less the same: the proposed simplified return.
The proposed simplified return includes a simulation of your tax calculation based on tax data known to us. It thus shows the amount to be paid or received. If you have received a proposed simplified return, in principle, you no longer need to file a return.
Example of a proposed simplified return
Am I going to receive a proposed simplified return this year?
You will probably receive a proposed simplified return if:
- you are paid a wage, a pension, unemployment benefit or sickness/invalidity benefit, and
- you have no other income (such as certain types of income from property, self-employment or company director’s income, an account abroad, etc.).
