Tax office to prepare tax declarations for citizens - FinMin

Starting from next year, Poland’s tax authority KAS will start preparing tax declaration for taxpayers, Finance Minister Teresa Czerwińska announced. The declarations will be prepared electronically (for PIT-37 and PIT-38 declarations) based on existing information from the tax office. It will include previous tax exemptions and deductions. Taxpayers will be able to modify them with additional data, decide to do their declarations on their own, or simply accept them and submit it to the tax office. “It is a transparent and simple system that does not require an additional effort from the taxpayer,” Czerwińska explained. If someone will ignore the prepared statement and file their own, the tax office will take into account the declaration filed by the taxpayer on their own. The tax office will also be responsible for any errors in the statement they’ve prepared. According to Czerwińska, the new system will eliminate delays in tax returns.
