ElsterOnline - An Odysee
After several nailbiting weeks I have finally entered all the data in my income tax forms. The site still claims there are some unchecked boxes that need checking but I can't check them because they just don't apply to me. I hope I'll still be able to submit the forms.
I went on to fill out the sales tax form but ended up not doing that because it's not there. It's simply not available at the site. I read in a forum that you can find it if you download the whole Elster program on your computer but there are limits to how far I'm bending over for them.
I called the revenue office to ask where I can find that form, and once again the person I was talking to had absolutely no idea and asked me to call tomorrow when someone with more ken might be there. But, I suggested (okay, ranted) that I'd rather submit it on paper and was relieved when she said, okay, yeah, I could do that.
So I'm gonna try and submit the income tax online to prove that I *tried*, and they'll get the rest on paper. Would be nice if they tried in the future to make this process user-friendly so you don't need a university degree in tax law to do it.
