If you have not received a response from us within 5 days of your application, it means that the application was not successful.

However, if you need further assistance, there are many English – speaking tax advisers in the Netherlands who will be able to help you (for a fee). For more information in English about the 30% ruling, you can visit the Belastingdienst website.
