The Twitch streamer Erik “Gronkh” Range had to undergo a tax audit that lasted for a year. Now it is finally over, and he can look forward to a large sum that must be repaid by the tax office.
What did Gronkh have to do? Gronkh had to undergo a tax audit where the submitted tax declaration is reviewed. This is usually very cumbersome, as all evidence for the provided information must be gathered and submitted.
It is randomly selected who receives a tax audit and can, depending on the case, take a long time. Tax audits ensure that no taxes have been evaded.
The tax office does this to hopefully still collect taxes. However, it can also occur, as in the case of Gronkh, that the exact opposite happens.
We present Gronkh’s career in our video:
1 Year Tax Audit for a Six-Figure Sum
Why was the tax audit so cumbersome? In a Twitch stream, Gronkh says that the tax audit lasted a total of one year because the tax office tried to prove something. Gronkh had to search for and submit many documents.
According to him, the tax office did not want the work they had already invested in the audit to be in vain.
What is the result? Gronkh shared the outcome of the tax audit with his viewers on Twitch: “It turned out that I am now getting a six-figure amount back.” (via twitch.tv). The exact number was not disclosed by the Twitch streamer.
Gronkh thanked the tax office with a laugh and said amused: “That was the result of the tax audit. So thank you! That was my Christmas gift for this year.”
The elaborate work and the money that the tax office invested in the tax audit ultimately benefited only Gronkh himself and not, as the tax office might have hoped, the tax authority.
Not only does Gronkh have luck with the tax audit. In other areas, he also seems to come out ahead. For example, with his Internet provider Telekom, the Twitch streamer has an advantage because he relies on stable Internet: “Don’t hate me” – Gronkh reveals what preferential treatment he receives as a Twitch streamer from Telekom
