Steuererklärung - employed with side 2 freelance jobs

8 posts in this topic

Hello everybody! Hope you all are well. I received a lot of help from TT in the previous years. With your support, I managed to do my own Steuererklärung through these years. However since last year our lives got a little more complicated (married, kid, bought an apartment, more freelance jobs...), I have again a couple of questions regarding the Steuererklärung and hope I could get some advices here.

1. I am employed with 2 freelance Steuernummern (1 Steuernummer as translator and 1 Steuernummer as consultant). I understood that I should submit a Gewinnermittlung for each of them. Does it mean I have to fill in two Anlage EÜR, one profession each?

 

2. In Elster under Anlage EÜR in the page of "Allgemeine Angaben", should I fill in the Steuernummer of each of this freelance profession (the Steuernummer is only for Gewinnermittlung)? Or should I fill in the general Steuernummer (for Einkommensteuer) which is for combined tax return with my husband? I am a bit lost as to when I should use which Steuernummer.


Thanks a lot for your help!

:mellow: Re. the above, I just tried to create one more Anlage EÜR for my 2nd freelance profession of which I have a Steuernummer for Gewinnermittlung.
But the Elster system says "Sie haben bereits Eingaben im Formular "Einnahmenüberschussrechnung (Anlage EÜR) 2021" gemacht. Die parallele Nutzung desselben Formulars wird nicht unterstützt." 
So I am not allowed to create 2 forms,  but then in the same form it doesn't allow me to enter the Gewinnermittlung for more than 1 profession. What should I do? :blink:

Have you considered phoning the tax office, and simply asking them what you should do?

Got any (German-speaking) friends?

 

May I ask if my questions are not appropriate for TT?  Basically most questions raised in TT concerning tax declaration can also be addressed to Finanzamt if this is what you suggest....

My suggestion to ask them directly comes from the fact that not many of us TTers are actually tax experts, so you would need to be super-lucky to find somebody who can give you a good reply to your question, whereas the people at the tax office do nothing else but fiddle around with tax forms... just trying to be helpful!

I see thank you :) Yes I understand many TT members are not tax experts. Just hoping by chance someone has the experience of having 2 freelance tax numbers (this shouldn't be so uncommon at least for Berlin). but yes, i'll try to contact the Finanzamt if I don't get any response here.
