do my taxes

with these most recent papers. Then did the necessary research. And now I know why my move to a major city means I will have to pay a lot more taxes than I had anticipated (and I had factored that in). Apparently a new tax law went into effect last year which changed many of the calculations. They call it a reform. Heh, heheh.

<sigh> Nothing I can do, but to sign and send off those papers and then pay.

sat down today and read the papers. I’ll have to repeat this, but for now I have a general idea. Little steps and all that…

I’ve gotten some tax papers back – I really need to sit down and read them thoroughly and then send off an answer. I usually would have done this pretty much at once, but such matters have not seemed important in the past weeks. Still, I need to get this done.

I now received the still missing document and was pleased that I could simply pull out my already prepared pack, put the new paper in and stuff it all in an envelope. So this is on the way to my tax accountant now. Half a year earlier than expected !

So this afternoon I sat down to prepare the papers for the next yearly tax thingie.

Turns out I’m still missing a statement from my bank, which won’t be sent out until next month. So I’ll have to wait until then.

However, I managed to prepare everything else and so have a nice bundle now, that I can send off, as soon as the other stuff arrives. Very cool.

I can’t stress enough, how much quicker I am able to get this done, now that I have a scanner/printer that can copy two-sided documents very quickly, without having to be attached to the computer.

to start with this tomorrow – first to check if I have all the necessary papers here. And if I do maybe I can even do more than just that. We’ll see…

Turns out if I don’t want to have large up-front payments this year, I’ll have to do my yearly tax stuff about half a year earlier this time :(

Today I found the official papers in the mail. The results are what was expected, which is good, I don’t like surprises in these matters…

So I’ll close this goal again until August for the next round.

I’ve put the documents in the mail today.

Here’s a note for next year: This worked well, next time around I should again start doing this around the end of August.

my documents and put them in an envelope, to be be sent tomorrow to the “official places”.
