In this section, the natural person’s earned income and capital income are specified, as well as their property fee/property tax and tax reductions. On the Basic information page, selections for the applicable municipal tax rate are made. Read more in the topic Tax return INK1.

Under Tax calculation - Tax return INK1 - Basic information, you can upload the pre-printed files Income tax return 1 (INK1), Specification to income tax return and Preliminary tax calculation from Skatteverket They will then automatically fill in your pre-printed data under the different pages and sections of Tax return INK1.

Note that some information is not possible to fetch and needs to be entered manually. This applies to:

  • Municipal tax
  • Burial fee
  • Church tax
  • Paid preliminary taxes (on the Tax arrears/refund page)
  • Unemployment insurance fund (A-kassa) fees

As certain fields on the income tax return are divided into several sub-fields in the program, we have chosen to transfer amounts to the most common field. It is especially important to adjust the field Sum salary, benefits, sickness allowance etc. (1.1) if the amount also consists of sickness benefit, unemployment insurance or income-related sickness and activity allowance.

A way to troubleshoot differences and detect any errors in the tax calculation can be to add the values to the Skatteverket's Calculate tax service.

The pre-printed income tax return can be found on Mina sidor on the Swedish Tax Agency's website. You find the income tax return as a pdf on the page Taxes and tax returns. Remember that you as a declaration agent can also log in and download the income tax return.

Please note that the pre-printed declaration will not be available until some time in March.
