Introduction
What is a tax assessment?
By doing this (final) tax assessment you inform the Tax service (Belastingdienst) about your income in 2011.
It will generate a response from the Belastingdienst based on your assessment. This response will give you the calculation of the
Belastingdienst.
Final assessment over 2011 in 2012
Please note that in 2012 everybody who is asked by the Belastingdienst to do so, needs to do this (final) assessment over the income from
2011.
And if you have done a provisional assessment in 2011, over 2011 was it not sure how the rest of 2011 turned out.
Now the year of 2011 is over, only now you know what your real actual income was over 2011.
And that’s why the Belastingdienst also wants everybody to do an assessment in 2012 (deadline: April 01, 2012) over 2011.
For who?
These instructions are also only for bursary students who do not have special possessions like a saving account (more than € 21.139),
stock or an extra house (a house bought by yourself) and who do not have special deductible costs (who can prove receipts from (at least
€ 500 on study books or special medical treatment costs which are not covered by any health insurance).
Limited ISD service and Tax Globalizers Bluestone
The International Service Desk is limited in their tax expertise; also we are limited in our time and staffing. Over the years we experience
more and more difficult tax related questions. Very often we are not able to assist anymore.
We are only equipped for helping average bursary students in filling out a tax forms, who prefer to have live assistance instead of
following these instructions; also we forward calculation letters to the Financial Department of the RUG; and we are able to assist in the
simple objection letters.
For all other tax issues we address you to this company: Tax Globalizers: http://www.tgbstone.com/
They are experts in all our international guests: like knowledge migrants, expats, but (most important) our bursary students.
We strongly recommend every international bursary student this company because of their good quality; we have good experience with
them. They can do a free scan (no cure, no pay) and for further actions it could cost you money, but if they find out you are eligible for
discounts etc. it is really worthwhile.
They can also help and explain with issues like “huurtoeslag” and “zorgtoeslag”.
