| | Re: 13 month salary. How often used and how calculated?
Would you believe that my Zurich based accountant cheated me on my tax return? And it was a firm and not someone that was independent. Sad but true.

| | Re: 13 month salary. How often used and how calculated? | Quote: | |  | | | No, it's true, though has nothing to do with management/non-management, and withholding is only for foreigners who don't have a C permit nor a Swiss spouse.
Swiss normally pay there taxes at the end of the year (I always do).
Tom | | | | | It wasn’t that long ago that no-one had tax withholding. Everyone paid their tax at the end of the year.

Enough or not depends on how much you earn, for most people it is more than enough.

Must have been a cantonal thing. In GE and then VD they didn’t start doing that until the late 90s

When I got married in '88, that changed until I moved to TI, where I went back to withholding until they ran into the problem that I earned too much for their withholding tables!
