Found a way to file taxes from abroad without the old meltdown
Back in Aleppo I used to stand in line at the tax office for 6 hours with paper forms, but now I file online from my cousin's kitchen in Berlin using a simple spreadsheet and a PDF scanner. My first year here I paid a $150 accountant who messed up my foreign income report, so I learned the German system's free online portal by watching three YouTube videos in Arabic. Has anyone else found a weird workaround for official paperwork that the locals assume is obvious?

6 hours in line" sounds like a dream compared to my DMV saga, lol.
