View your tax assessment notice
Most people receive the tax assessment notice in June. Some receive it earlier, while others receive it between August and November.
When you’ve submitted your tax return, we need to process it and prepare a tax assessment. You’ll receive a tax assessment notice where you can see how much money you’ll receive (tax refund) or how much you still have to pay (underpaid tax). If you get a refund of overpaid tax, the money will be transferred to your account shortly after you’ve received your tax assessment notice.
When will my tax assessment notice arrive?
Most people receive the tax assessment notice in June. Some receive it earlier, while others receive it between August and November.
You may receive the tax assessment notice sooner if you submit the tax return before the deadline of 30 April and you have overpaid tax. If you’re married, your spouse must also submit before the deadline and have overpaid tax.
If you did not submit before the deadline or you have underpaid tax, you’ll receive your tax assessment notice in June at the earliest.
There may be several reasons for your tax assessment notice to arrive later, for example:
- You’ve made many changes or added attachments.
- You’re a self-employed person or have applied for an extension.
- You’ve been picked for a random check.
- You have not included all the required information in your tax return.
- You’ve received back payment from Nav or other pension companies. In that case, the tax settlement takes longer because we calculate the tax on the back payment to ensure you pay the lowest possible amount.
- You must pay underpaid tax. You’ll receive your tax assessment notice at the earliest in June.
Unfortunately, we cannot give you a definite answer for why it is your tax assessment that takes longer. You’ll be notified when it is ready.
Spouses receive their tax assessment notices at the same time
If you’re married, both you and your spouse receive your tax assessment notices at the same time – after both tax returns have been processed. If some of the points above apply to your spouse, this might result in both of you getting your tax assessment notices later.
If your spouse has underpaid tax or did not submit the tax return within the deadline, you’ll be getting your tax assessment notices in June at the earliest.

Log in and check status on your tax assessment notice.
Unfortunately, we cannot give you a specific date for when you’ll receive your tax assessment notice. You’ll be notified.
There may be several reasons why you have not yet received your tax refund, for example:
- The tax assessment is not yet completed. We’ll let you know when your tax assessment is ready. The tax refund will be paid once you receive your tax assessment notice.
- You owe money to the state/municipality. Any tax refund you have in credit can be used to cover what you owe.
- We need an account number we can pay the refund to. If this applies to you, you must log in to register an account number. We’ll also send you a separate letter about this.
- The money has been paid to another account than you expected. You can log in and check how we pay you.
- You do not get a tax refund this year. The preliminary tax calculation shown in your tax return is not final and may be changed. After you’ve received your tax assessment notice, you can log in and check whether you have to pay overpaid tax or get a tax refund. You will not receive any money if you do not have overpaid tax.
When you know the result
When you’ve received your tax assessment notice, you know if you get a refund, have to pay more or got it just right.
When you get a refund - tax refund
When you must pay - underpaid tax
