For international students: Easy Taxes – What you need to know about taxes as a student (engl.)
Online-Workshop (BigBlueButton)
Teaching Language: English
Can I actually deduct my laptop from taxes? How much income can I earn tax-free? And
what exactly are advertising costs or special expenses again? In this workshop, you’ll get an easy-to-understand introduction to the German tax system – without complicated jargon. You’ll learn why it’s especially worthwhile for students and early career professionals to file a tax return – even if you’re “just” working a part-time job. We’ll cover topics such as:
- Which types of income are tax-free.
- Which expenses you can claim (e.g., laptop, textbooks, moving costs).
- What advertising costs, special expenses, and similar terms mean.
- How a smart tax return can help you get money back.
Ideal for everyone who wants to keep track of their finances and not miss out on any
benefits.
