It is likely that the Actual Return Statement (OWR) form will soon become available digitally. With this form, counter evidence can be provided that the actual return achieved with the assets in box 3 is lower than the flat-rate taxed income. If the actual return is higher than the flat-rate taxed income, no income tax needs to be paid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Form OWR<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Counter-evidence can only be provided through the form OWR.

If an OWR form is not submitted after the deadline, the final assessment will be imposed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In all cases, if the final assessment has already been imposed and that assessment has been appealed, the Form OWR must be filed within 12 weeks of receiving the letter of justification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Attention letter<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Anyone who has not yet received a final income tax assessment and has declared income in box 3 in his\/her tax return will receive an attention letter from the Tax Administration. That letter draws attention to the possibility of submitting rebuttal evidence via the OWR form. The attention letters are not all sent at the same time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-red-color\">PLEASE NOTE: this attention letter is NOT sent to us as a tax service provider.
