How is the "My tax return" page structured?

On the "My Tax Return" page, you will find an overview of all the important steps – from data entry to checking your tax assessment notice.

1 Enter data

In the "Enter data" section, you can enter your details for the tax return using the tax interview. The questions are organised by topic and guide you step by step through the areas relevant to your tax situation.

If you participate in the electronic data retrieval, you can directly import the tax data provided for you by the tax office.

2 Tax saving tips

Here you will find individual tax tips tailored to your information. The tips help you identify possible tax advantages and make the most of tax planning opportunities.

3 Check data

Before submitting your tax return, you can have your entries checked for completeness and plausibility. Any errors, missing information or contradictory entries will be identified and displayed.

4 Submit tax return

This section takes you to the "Submission" page, where you can electronically submit your tax return to the tax office.

Note: For electronic submission, your tax return must first be paid for and activated.

After successful submission, you will find the confirmation of receipt from the tax office with the Telenumber and transfer ticket here. In addition, all important documents related to your tax return are available for download.

Send documents to the tax office

In all federal states, you can digitally submit required forms and evidence to the tax authorities.

Please note: Documents should generally not be submitted unsolicited. The tax authorities recommend providing evidence only upon request from the tax office.

For more information, see the section "Submit documents later".

Restart tax return submission

If you discover an error after submission, you can reset the submission process and resubmit the tax return. Then go through the individual submission steps again.

5 Check tax assessment notice

After receiving your tax assessment notice, you can compare the tax office's determinations with your tax calculation and quickly identify any discrepancies.

As soon as electronic assessment data is available, it will be automatically retrieved by SteuerGo. You will be informed of this by email.

If differences are found, SteuerGo will assist you in reviewing the discrepancies and provide helpful explanations and templates for a possible appeal.
