    Yeah in Sweden we just get the information and have to sign it or correct faults in their calculations (things they couldn’t have known etc). Takes 5 minutes for most people and can be done in the phone with digital identification.

      UK ex-pat here. I was self employed. You typed in the numbers of what you earned, what you spent, hit send. That’s it. The American system is so fucked.

        This is basically what we do also but we have a bunch of other fields and whatnot for other services and so on and so forth.

        It’s just more bs paperwork to trip up poor people on and let rich people navigate through.
