Not included: we do not file an application for you, submit nothing and do not look at decisions. Everything in the dossier is also shown by the calculator, free of charge.
The statutory warranty rights for digital content apply.
For the plan dossier, the calculator first needs your plan.

Free of charge, no email address: your whole plan dossier with your figures, with “SAMPLE” across every page.
Payment is not switched on in this version yet. You cannot buy anything here yet; everything calculated stays free.

Do you already know the due date, or are you still planning?
The calculator and the plan are free. If you want your plan as a plan dossier (PDF) at the end, that costs €14.90, once. You will not be asked for money before then.
Your salary data is processed exclusively on your device and never leaves it.

The official form: your details
For the form we need your federal state.
For the form, the calculator first needs your complete details and a plan.
An extra of the plan dossier, for everyone who applies on paper. The sample is free; the form without the imprint comes with the plan dossier.
The application form asks for more than the calculator needs: names, address, tax ID, health insurer, bank account. The calculator uses these details only to fill in the form on this device; they are not sent to us.
The months on the form (section 10) come from your plan on the result page.
This does not fit the form yet:
Notes about the form are in German, like the form itself.
The official form
The application form comes from your state, not from us. Download it from the official page, then choose the file here. It stays in this browser and is not sent to us.
