Turning in your taxes before April 15 is an aggravating experience. Even if all you have to do is retype the numbers on different parts of your W-2 into blanks on another form, it’s a tedious process made more stressful by the knowledge that you’ll be breaking the law if you don’t get it done on time.

Here’s the thing, though: it doesn’t have to be like this. Really.

In several Nordic countries, the government prepares your taxes for you. All you have to do is officially agree that they’ve filled out the forms correctly. In Sweden, for example, many taxpayers who don’t want to claim complicated deductions simply get a text message with their tax information filled out for them. All they must do is respond “yes.” That’s it. That’s literally what “doing taxes” is for those Swedes.
