What country uses British English ("maths I learnt") and has a US-style nightmare of individual tax returns?

[–] BoBTFish@kbin.social 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Plenty of people in Britain have to do a tax assessment. But not if you have a simple single employment, no meaningful savings or investments, etc.

Sure, but "22-year-old me" seemed unlikely to be in that uncommon situation in a meme that's meant to be relatable.

Canada? The British slang at least wouldn't be that out of place here

Saying maths is absolutely out of place here. Also taxes here aren't nearly as complicated as the US and there are a number of free tools available to file by yourself.

Thank you, northern neighbor. I suspected that was the answer but wasn't sure.
