Raml & Partner Infotermin Tax Declaration

Not a legal requirement, but highly recommended: The annual tax return.
 
You may have heard words like "Steuererklärung", "Arbeitnehmerveranlagung" or "Steuerausgleich"... they all mean the same thing, and it can be a real challenge if you are doing it for the first time!

Income from employment is taxable in Austria. You do not actively pay it, but your employer is obliged to deduct it from your earnings. You may also have private expenses that are tax deductible - but how do you know?

A tax expert from Raml & Partner will explain the deductible expenses. He will also show you how to fill in and file your tax returns and help you save money!

The presentation will be held in English and online!

Excursion Austrian History Mauthausen

Excursion Austrian History of Mauthausen for International students!

Mauthausen, a massive concentration camp in Nazi Germany, was in operation between August 1938 and May 1945, before being liberated by the Allied forces. Over 190,000 individuals were imprisoned in the Mauthausen concentration camp and its subcamps for over seven years, and over 90,000 perished.

Schedule:
We will first join a guided tour through the entire complex and learn the history - a history that should never be forgotten.
Following the guided tour, we will take the bus back to Linz and enjoy an Austrian lunch at the KHG, where we will also end the day with plenty of time for discussions and reflection.

Participants only pay a small contribution of € 5 for the entire day (including bus transfers, tickets, and snacks).
The fee will be collected in cash on the day of the excursion.
