Inland Revenue Department & Finanzamt Neubrandenburg.

At the present time I am in contact with two Tax Departments, one is here in New Zealand (IRD) and the other one in Germany (Finanzamt Neubrandenburg).

The reason why they are in contact with me is that I receive a small pension from Germany since 2005.

Since 2005 I pay tax on my small German pension here in New Zealand and the payment for the next bill is due at the beginning of February this year.

In 2011 the German Tax Department asked me for the first time to pay tax on my German pension. At the beginning of this year I received tax bills for the years 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, six in all. The deadline to pay the six bills is the 5th of March this year. 

All this  is really bad news for me and I am only at the beginning of this nasty development.

Whether I want to or not I have to work on this tax business.

So far you don’t find many January 2012 posts on this blog. And I don’t want to give you the tax business as an excuse.

But I will tell you more about this tax business in the FUTURE…………….
