elster-form-capture
Drive the Mein ELSTER web form by machine to capture a German tax return — Hauptvordruck, Anlage N, V, V-Sonstige, KAP, Vorsorgeaufwand — while the taxpayer authenticates and transmits personally. Covers the stable ERiC field numbers behind name="fields[…]", sub-page navigation, repeat rows, sub-forms, mandatory-field traps, eData gaps, and a machine comparison of every target amount against the summary page. USE FOR: ELSTER, Mein ELSTER, Steuererklärung erfassen, Formular ausfüllen, Anlage V, Anlage N, Anlage Vorsorgeaufwand, Teilseite, Wiederholzeile, Kennzahl, ERiC, eruV/eruN field ids, Daten vorhanden, Prüfen und Steuer berechnen, Transferticket, eData, Entwurf fortsetzen, automating a German tax portal form with Playwright. DO NOT USE FOR: deciding what is deductible or drafting an Einspruch (use german-tax-research), login and cookies (use authenticated-web-extraction), reading receipts (use pdf-to-markdown, xlsx-to-markdown), Anlagen bundles (use evidence-package-assembly).
- Compatibility
- A Mein ELSTER account the user signs into personally, and browser automation tools with Playwright access to the shared page. No credentials, cookies, or certificates are ever handled by the model.
