@badp I'm in luck, I always get a "voorstel voor vereenvoudigde aangifte". That's something the Belgian Belastingsdienst does for over half of Belgians, where they give you a proposal based on the data they have and if you agree with it you don't need to do anything

same concept in NL
if you have a single employer, no major changes in your status and no significant deductibles, you can use the prefilled data
and after two years of that they stop asking you, you can still file something but it's not required

@Nzall 80% of my data is already filled in, but I do need to type in the remaining 20%
the 20% of data the Belastingdienst couldn't figure out on their own swung me from getting 1400 euros back to paying 300 euros
mostly some mortgage data and information about Italian assets and golden handcuffs

@MiG it's the colloquial term for employee retention schemes where you get rewards for staying with the company
for example, every year you get some stock that will only vest (= actually become yours) if you're still working with that company by a future date
e.g. in 2022 I got the stock I was promised in 2019, 2020 and 2021 for still being in the company
in other words, if I were to quit now I'd forfeit some of the stock I was promised in 2020, most of the stock I was promised in 2021, all of the stock that was promised in 2022
the idea being you're like "damn that would be turning my back on a lot of money"
hence the name, golden handcuffs

It's been so long since I read it (for English class), but the way I remember it they were the autocratic leaders.
Or the oligarchy
