I thought the same but what my tax consultants told me in the end was it is quite possible to end up owing to the tax authorities in the case of tax at source. I can only advise to go for each and every deduction you can; if you're filing a return, don't just file a "standard" one with the fixed deductions etc. Quote: CorsebouTheReturn Actually now that i remember, a colleague told me its good to fill tax return...

Sorry it's AbFab not Adfab, pesky new German keyboard, finger are getting confused, or maybe lousy typing.

Quote: CorsebouTheReturn why have you filled tax return if you are paid "a la source"? I heard its all automatically done? If you invest on a 3rd pillar, make substantial charities, etc you may want to verify if you can have something reimbursed. It can be as high as your monthly salary in some cases.

They could see my account just fine, they just couldn't see the balance and needed a confirmation from the offshore branch that I had the funds. In the last year I have also done transfers to other people with accounts within the HSBC group and these...

Thats interesting. It seems like I wouldn't pay much taxes on withdrawing the cash. The example seems like this. I pay in 3 years, say 20k. Each year I get back ~1500-2000CHF in tax refund.
