I was a little nervous about uploading my pension statements, but the process was straightforward and I was guided through each step with patience. The service team were courteous when I had a question about the state pension figure. I'm grateful for the clear summary at the end, which I printed for my records.
Read moreNeeded help filing my return because I'd just started freelancing and had no idea what counted as allowable expenses. I looked at a couple of other accountants and a few online tools before settling on this one. The sign-up took a while because it kept asking for documents I had to hunt down, and the reply to my first question took two working days. Once it was all set up it ran fine.
Read moreI'd been paying an accountant a few hundred pounds a year and this was a lot less for a similar job, so the comparison was really the first thing I noticed. Signing up took about ten minutes and the questions were sensible. The only thing that slowed me down was finding where to attach my bank statements, it wasn't obvious at first. Once I found it the rest went smoothly.
Read moreI had been doing my return by post for years, so it was a relief to find this compared to sending paper forms off to the tax office. The online process felt a little longer than I'd hoped, mainly because I had to dig out old pension statements, but the reminders were helpful. I'd say the cost was fair.
I needed to get my return sorted after years of my husband doing it, so it was all new to me. The signup asked me to confirm my details twice, which was a bit tedious, and the bank link needed re-authorising halfway through. Once I got past that it was clear and I felt in control. The record of my submission is saved neatly in my account.

The reminder emails before each deadline are the bit I like most, they've saved me from forgetting my payments on more than one occasion. I've been using them for about six years now and the process hasn't changed much, which I like. Sign in, check the figures, submit, done.
Did my return on here, it's fine. The app is a bit clunky when you switch between sections and the back button doesn't always work. Still got it done and it was cheap enough.

SteuerGo is a German online service that helps private individuals prepare and file their income tax returns, known as Steuererklärung, from their own home. The platform guides users through a series of questions in plain German, covering employment income, deductible expenses, childcare, donations and other items that can reduce a tax bill. Once the return is complete, it is transmitted electronically to the German tax authorities through the ELSTER system, and users can track the status of their submission within the service.
SteuerGo serves employees, pensioners, students and self-employed people in Germany who want a digital alternative to paper forms or to hiring a tax adviser for a straightforward return. The company operates entirely online, so there are no shops to visit, and support is offered through the website and its help resources while users work through their declaration.
