Tax return Lindau — prepared and filed for you
We prepare and file tax returns for residents of Lindau — Lindau village, Tagelswangen, Grafstal, Kemptthal and Winterberg — online or at our office by Winterthur main station. Families from CHF 100, homeowners from CHF 120.
Lindau in the Kempt valley is made up of five villages with very different characters: Kemptthal with its railway station and long-established industrial site, Grafstal in the valley, Tagelswangen, Winterberg on the hill and Lindau village itself. The municipality sits right between Winterthur and Effretikon, which makes it attractive for families commuting in either direction.
We look after clients from Lindau from our office in Winterthur — online, by post or in person. From Kemptthal the S24 takes five minutes to Winterthur main station, and our office in the Archhöfe shopping centre is right next to it. If you would rather not travel, just upload your documents.

Typical topics
What often matters in Lindau.
Mortgage and debt interest
Many households in Lindau live in their own home. Mortgage interest is deductible as debt interest; in return, the imputed rental value is taxed as income. If you refinanced during the tax year — for example switching from a fixed-rate to a SARON mortgage — the interest from both banks must be recorded in full.
Commuting in two directions
Working in Winterthur means a short trip; commuting to Zurich usually runs via Effretikon. In both cases, the ZVV travel pass is the key deduction. Driving from Winterberg or Tagelswangen needs a plausible justification.
Pension savings for families
Pillar 3a for both partners, health insurance premiums and childcare costs — for families the deductions add up. We check whether a partner working part time can also pay into pillar 3a and save tax that way.
Example
Example: a mortgage switch in Tagelswangen
A family with one child lives in a terraced house in Tagelswangen. Their fixed-rate mortgage expired in spring and they moved to a different bank. She works part time in Winterthur, he commutes to Zurich.
We record the debt interest from both banks for their respective periods, carry over the imputed rental value from the last assessment, claim both travel passes and show the family that a pillar 3a pays off on the part-time salary too. The return is filed electronically via ZHprivateTax.
