Maybe someone knows this or how to find out - I will be leaving Switzerland after two years going back to the USA. I've been told that your AHV and/or ALV contributions are refunded to you when you leave. I have heard that this is "definate" and also that it is "definately not so" and some things in between depending how long you have been here and the ammount . Any ideas?

Thanks.

Hi,

Sorry, but I don't know the answer. Sounds typical for CH if you get 2 different answers. It all seems to depend on who you know and/or ask. However, if you find out a "real answer", I would also like to know.

Also, if you figure out how to get out the company retirement without paying Swiss taxes (e.g. rollover into an IRA?), I would also be interested.

best regards and good luck,
Mike

Hello William

We assisted 3 families to move back to the USA last year and all of them were able to reclaim the AHV payments without much ado. We'd be glad to talk you through the process if you are still needing help. Please call Nicki at Le Concierge 041 783 1680.
Good luck
