Tax Refund process

Client submits all required documents and forms to AmberTax. Once documents are received, client receives confirmation by e-mail. All client’s documents are reviewed and analyzed by AmberTax tax Advisor. If possible, tax declarations are sent to tax authorities. When Tax Refund is received, AmberTax informs client by email about received money and made payment into client’s provided bank account. If client desides to receive money by a check, it will be mailed to address provided by client.

Contract

By signing contract client agrees to have AmberTax as exclusive provider of his/her Tax Refund services for tax years mentioned in the Tax Refund Application Form and grants AmberTax the right to use personal data about client, but only and as much as needed in accordance to contract.

When the client signs a contract, he/she is agreeing to grant AmberTax the right to receive the whole amount entered on the Tax Refund check issued in client’s name, also to present all Tax Refund checks issued in client’s name to the bank and endorse (negotiate) them, or/and to receive Tax Refund to AmberTax bank account.

If the client has signed a contract authorising AmberTax to organise his/her refunds, and has, with or without his or her knowledge, applied or authorised any other person, natural or legal, to organise the same refund, he/she will owe AmberTax the fee for the organisation of a refund, notwithstanding that the client has obtained a refund otherwise than with the assistance of AmberTax.

Tax Refund amount and period

AmberTax refund estimator is an estimation tool only. All the calculated refundable amounts provided by AmberTax are based on the average Tax Refund amount of similar cases from the previous tax years issued by the tax authorities and are only estimated. Final Tax Refund amount will depend upon the information and data on actual documents submitted by client. Please note, that final decision of the exact value of any refund due or amount owed is the decision of the relevant tax authority.

Where there is a change in the applicable tax law in the country from which the Tax Refund is being reclaimed, or in the interpretation or implementation of the rules and laws by the tax authorities of that country, AmberTax will meet its commitment to organize the refund to the degree allowed by the law, interpretation and implementation by the tax authority in that country.
