Truster your business tax return (Form 5) on your behalf. The tax return is included in your service fee, so we do not charge a separate fee for it. In order for us to file the return, you must haveLight active Pro Light at the time of filing and we must have a valid business authorization.
Mileage reduction and driving log
To claim the mileage deduction, you must keep a logbook during the financial year, specifying the total mileage of the car and the proportion of work-related driving. The car must be owned by you or your spouse in order for the mileage deduction to be granted.
If you have a car in your accounts, you cannot claim mileage deductions on your tax return; instead, you must use the expenses recorded for the car in your accounts. In this case, you are still required to keep a driving log during the financial year.
Personal tax return
As an entrepreneur, you will also receive a pre-filled personal tax return by mail. You must check your personal tax return yourself, even though you do not need to worry about your business tax return (form 5), as Truster it for you electronically. The deadline for your personal tax return is the same as for your business tax return.
At the turn of the year, we will send out a tax return survey by email, which will remain open until the end of February. The form is divided into clear sections where you answer a few questions about your work, driving log, and any additional deductions.
What can prevent you from filing a tax return?
The first obstacle is the missing Suomi.fi corporate authorization. Without corporate authorization, we cannot access your tax return at all.
Another obstacle is that Light Pro Light is not active. Filing a tax return requires that your subscription is valid at the time of filing.
