Short answer is yes, accounting fees for individual tax payers are deductible. The ATO allows you to claim a deduction for expenses you incur when managing, preparing and lodging your tax return and activity statements.
Good question! Check out our “Is it deductible?” tax checklist.
It’s important to get good advice from an accountant and a financial planner. You may be able to claim a tax deduction for personal super contributions that you made to your super fund from your after-tax income, for example, from your bank account directly to your super fund.
Short answer, no – home renovations are not tax deductible. The Australian Taxation Office (ATO) does allow owners of income-producing properties (i.e. rental property) to claim depreciation deductions for the natural wear and tear that occurs to a building and its assets over time.
Of course you can! Check out our guide here.
If your phone, data and internet use for work is incidental and you’re not claiming more than $50 in total, you do not need to keep records.
To claim a deduction of more than $50, you need to keep records to show your work-related use. Your records need to show a four-week representative period in each income year. You can then apply this representative period to the whole income year.
Records you keep may include diary entries, including electronic records, and bills. Evidence that your employer expects you to work at home or make work-related calls from home will also help you show your entitlement to claim a deduction.
