I tell you how it works in my shitty eastern european country:
- I get an email that my report is ready, I have to go to a website where I can see it.
- After logging in I can see a list, where I worked last year, how much was paid, if I should pay anything more or I can get back something.
- If everything is alright I can hit OK. If something is not right I can open an issue on the same website, but I never had to do that ever.
That’s all. Usually takes less than 5 minutes for the whole process.
Love the meme but JFC I wish they would just send us a simple invoice (or refund) every year. You know, the way adult nations do things.
In Germany they just keep the money they think you owe them up front. If you think you owe less you have to send in a report proving it. If you owe more (e.g. from cash income) and they find out, you’re punished.
