I lived in Sweden for 7 months, left there in April 2021. Is this saying I should get back 10956 SEK? Please help, I have no bank account there and language barrier is difficult.

1. Yes, so you should get in contact with them asap.

2. Yes, it says you’re getting back 10 956kr

3. Congrats 🎉

4. FYI. It also says that you have saved 6600 SEK in your state retirement fund. Which will be invested to some degree and paid out when retirement age arrives.

5. If you don’t have an account the money will be kept until you give them an account, it is possible to apply to use a foreign account, see the link

6. As everyone else already answered I have another question: did you work for 7 months and only got paid 94 740kr?

7. Tillbaka means back, so absolutely!

8. Tell them to transfer it to my bankaccount and I Will Paypal you if that is easier for you 😉

9. It looks like you got answers to your question but I’ll recommend r/TillSverige in the future. It’s a subreddit for people who are or have moved to Sweden.

10. Can I have it? I have to pay 17k+. Thanks! <3

11. It also says “Because you have moved from Sweden during 2021 your basic deduction might be lowered.” So might be a case that the 10 956kr can changed somewhat. Just FYI.

12. Yes its what u gonna get back

13. Yes, if you accept that and do whats necessary. U Will get the money

14. Yes but you should be prepared for some things. They have probably not accounted for the money earn in other countries (did you earn money rest of the year when not in Sweden which haven’t been declared?)

    Some tax deductions might be deducted against next year’s taxes, but I’m uncertain which of the expenses that are. I think its more like household services deductions.

    But good luck, just don’t be too disappointed if it’s not 10k, I’ve got the into that trap myself.

15. I’ve spent two years trying to get them to give me a similar amount of money after moving out of Sweden (and closing my Swedish bank account). Good luck.

16. Log into skatteverket and register your bank account for payments and once you’ve accepted the inkomst deklaration you should get the money in your account within the following months.

17. Lucky guy, wanna swap with me? 😂

18. I’d suggest calling them. Say what you will about Swedes but Skatteverket is an organization I trust. They will help you if you call them.

19. Är inte begravningsavgift en avgift enbart för dem som är medlemmar i svenska kyrkan?

20. That’s a bingo, congrats!
