According to a report, most tax offices processed tax returns last year faster than the year before, despite the corona pandemic. The Berlin authorities were particularly quick, reports the portal t-online.de (Friday), citing a current study by the Taxpayers’ Association (BdSt). On average, 33 days passed from the submission of the tax return to the notification in the capital – four days less than in 2020. In Brandenburg, on the other hand, the processing time has increased by six days and the tax notification came after an average of 48 days. This puts Brandenburg in last place in a nationwide comparison.
