Here in Norway I just have to look it over on our IRS' own site (so no selling of private data to god knows how many unknown third parties), add a couple of items they don't get automatically, like a private loan, and click save. Less than 10 minutes.
For years the big hassle was that housing loans only got put on one of us, but since we're both paying on the loan, the loan and deductions should be split as well. So that had to be manually calculated and corrected on each of our declarations.
However last year they fixed that. Now they get the split from the property ownership registry and distribute the loan and deductions according to that. For most people they pay similar to their ownership, typically 50/50, so no need to change that anymore.
Our IRS' has a quite good internal development team[1], rather than relying on contractors for everything. Their digital solutions has been several steps ahead most other agencies.
