Thank you again everyone, all of you were really helpful and I feel much more informed in a topic I knew nothing about until today : )
Not sure if this is still up to date, as I’ve not lived in Zurich for 5 years, but when I filled out my first tax return in 2011, I used this guide.
Thank you "eyebeebe", this post seems very helpful : )
Also sweet 996.2 you roll in
I've completed my 2019 tax return in ZH using the online Privattax portal. On the release cover sheet it mentions sending the access code...but isn't the cover sheet the access code for the authorities?
Any help here would be good.
You need the access code for submitting your tax declaration online (through private tax), but this will not exempt you from sending over any receipts to the taxoffice.
At this link is a screenshot showing the Zugangscode location on the first page of the original tax for ZHprivateTax:
Yes that much I understand, and I used this to gain access to the platform and complete my tax return.
My question is: surely I don't have to send this number in with the documents? I would assume the barcode on the coversheet authorises that.
