Is there an hope of finding an English guide/manual for how to fill the Tax Declaration (Declaration d'Impot)?
Hi,
Do not have high hopes. First and foremost, as you do not state for which canton. Second, as there may be no such guide for your canton.
There is a stickie on how to complete your tax form. It is older but at least it will give you some good ideas where to find what?
Do you have to fill tax form if you are working for a company that you get deducted from your salary the taxes?
If thats the case for the OP
Couldn't find it. Can you give the link please?
This guide might help English-speakers in Canton Zurich. It's appropriately called: "How to Fill in Your Tax Return 2015":
Here the short guide for the Basel-Stadt tax declaration
Both will be very helpful for some people I'm sure but given that the OP levies in Romandie probably not much use to him.
Here's some general info for him.
I wonder why the cantons can't at least agree a common numbering system for the fields?
(Apart from the obvious that they don't agree on anything much)
That would mean translations, guides and software would be much much easier, but they could still request whatever information and in whatever form they like, just using an agreed reference.
HiggsBosun, you have left it a bit late, but if you visit large Migros and Coop notice boards, there is often someone from the tax office offering their services for Fr 100 to Fr 200 (for a straight forward case).
Otherwise look for a "conseiller fiscal" near you.
In Vaud, if you download the tax form, instructions are found on each page
The same applies to every canton I assume - the point was to get them in English.
Hi everyone,
Is there an English guide for the canton of Basel-stadt for the tax return form?
Also, does anybody know how much a tax consultant charges to fill in the tax return form? And do you know a relatively cheap option in Basel-stadt? It would be good for the first time if I get it filled in by s specialist to see how it is done and ask the (many) questions I have.
Thanks,
Ask at the tax office, that's what I did.

So I got the C permit middle last year. That means that I have payed already half of the tax for 2018, because of withholding tax during my Permit B.
Is there any way to declare this in the tax form?
You don’t need to declare it in the tax form, the tax office knows how much you have already paid. Once you have completed and filed your tax return they will calculate the total tax owed, subtract the amount you’ve already paid and bill you for the amount outstanding.
