Oh so Taxing...

So German tax time is coming up. Unlike the U.S., the deadline isn't until May 31st.

But I spent 2 hours in a tax workshop (in English, Gott sei Dank!), and my head is still spinning from the whole thing.

Apparently 60%!!! of all German literature is written about the German tax system.

Germany definitely lives up to its reputation for beauracracy. And I'm glad I'm not the only one confused... But on the plus side I may be able to get a bit of money back, so I hope it will be worth the hassle...
