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).
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.
If you’ve made many changes or added attachments, it may take longer to process your tax return.
There may be several reasons for your tax assessment notice to arrive later, for example:
- Your spouse has underpaid tax, has not submitted within the deadline, is self-employed, or has applied for an extension. Spouses receive their tax assessment notice when both their tax returns have been processed.
- 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.
Important information
Unfortunately, we cannot give you a specific date for when you’ll receive your tax assessment notice. You’ll be notified by email or text message when your tax assessment notice is ready.
When your tax assessment notice is ready, you can log in and check your tax return.
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.
- You owe money to the state/municipality. Any tax refund you have in credit can be used to cover what you owe.
- The money has been paid to another account than you expected, or it’s been sent by payment card. 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.
