Hi all!
I'm not yet living in Switzerland, having a hard time understanding the income tax system.
Can I rely that the official tax calculator include all taxes for the year, or are there any significant "surprises", for instance additional taxes at the end of the year ? (I am an EU citizen, looking for a "permanent" job in Switzerland)
An example of the tax calculator's results:
(For Basel-Stadt, single person):
Gross income: 100,000
Direct Federal Tax:
2337
Cantonal Tax: 16238
Communal Tax: 0
Church Tax: 1299
Could the communal tax or anything else come as a surprise, or is the tax calculator rather reliable?

Thanks a lot!
