Re: Finding a tax advisor, consultant or accountant

Yay tax time.

I moved from USA to Switzerland on an open-ended local contract (NOT EXPAT). I am not an american citizen, nor do I have a green-card, so I don't have to report my Swiss income for 2006 on my American tax return. Not sure if this holds the other way around , I presume it does...

anyway, I need someone to file my taxes for me since I understand neither German (yet) nor French. They need to be in Zurich, and they need to be cheap because I do NOT have complicated circumstances. The only thing I want to do is try to get some of the tax back that i paid on my relocation expenses ... which were paid here in Switzerland and taxed (ARRRGGGHH! Why do relocation expenses get taxed...!). Complicated part is that i paid for some of these expenses in america with american funds, but got reimbursed in swizterland (and subsequently taxed here too).

Any suggestions for a tax person in Zurich? I'm in Enge.
