Dear All,


Please pay attention to the fact that for the 2007 income tax bill in 90% of the cases the tax people has simply forgotten to pick up (as they must do it) your usual bank account number they are aware of or the new one mentioned on the tax return.


So in case of a refund they will now send you BY NORMAL MAIL a postal check ! Assuming you get it (everybody know that mail can be lost ....)  than you will have to queue at the post office to get the refund provided you have your identity card on you.

The Dehnen German tax lawyers' office has authorized us to let you discover their interesting tax letters:
