Tax return: why the tax offices are faster in 2020

The fastest thing in the past year was Saarland: In St. Ingbert, the income tax return was returned to the taxpayer after an average of 28.7 days.

For Solingen in second place, four more days passed between sending the declaration and receiving the electronic tax assessment.

The employees of the tax authorities in Jena even needed almost 60 days longer than in St. Ingbert - an average of 84.9 days passed there before the tax assessment was received.

The nationwide average is 53.1 days.

That is the result of the annual evaluation of the online tax portal Lohnsteuer-kompakt.de, which WELT AM SONNTAG is exclusively available to.
