Can anybody join STEUERCHECK24?

No, the STEUERCHECK24 offer is primarily geared toward persons in a dependent employment relationship, civil servants, retirees, unemployed persons and maintenance recipients. You can become a member if all of your income is from a dependent employment relationship, a pension, maintenance benefits and support payments. You may also have

  • Income from capital assets (e.g. interest income, dividends),
  • Rental and lease income (e.g. apartment rentals, hereditary leasehold),
  • Other income (e.g. private sales proceeds)

provided revenues from these three types of income do not exceed a total of € 13,000 or € 26,000 for married couples.

How can I join STEUERCHECK24?

The membership application is easy and can be filled out quickly online. Just use our online membership declaration. If you prefer, you may also print out your membership application and send it to us by mail or by fax.

How long is my STEUERCHECK24 membership valid?

Generally, you can be a member for as long as you like. The annual membership renews automatically, which means your membership will be in force until it is revoked. You can cancel your membership in writing as of September 30 each year before the end of the contract period. A three-month notice period applies.

How long does it take to complete my tax return?

The online process is very fast. As soon as we have all your documentation, we complete your tax return as quickly as possible and calculate your tax (refund).

How does it work?

As part of your membership, we handle your future tax returns professionally and online, when and where you choose – no appointments, no business hours, no missing documentation. STEUERCHECK24 offers private taxpayers the widest possible flexibility in the completion of their tax returns.


Your tax return is three steps away:








Step 1: Become a member

Because we can make our services only available to members, you must first join our organization. You can do this online very convenietly.

Step 2: Submit your documents

The TAX CHECK LIST tells you what documents are important for your tax return.  Please send us all necessary documents for your tax return by mail (photocopies please!), via email (as pdf file) or via fax. Done! That is all you have to do.

Step 3: Finished! You receive your tax return

As soon as we have received all documents, we complete your tax return and calculate your tax (refund). We submit your completed tax return electronically to the tax authorities so that you can receive your tax refund as soon as possible.
