Yes .... In my country, doing your annual tax returns normally takes about 5 minutes.
The tax authority has already gathered all the info about you; computed the figures; and filled in your deductibles. You only need to log on, read the statement, and confirm that it's correct.
Americans who come to my country to work are regularly astounded.
