Question

Once you've followed the 3 golden rules ................ claim away! - You must have spent the money yourself and weren't reimbursed. - The expenses must directly relate to earning your income. - You must have a record (https://www.ato.gov.au/individuals/income-and-deductions/records-you-need-to-keep/) to prove it (usually a receipt). Check out the information on our web site that talks about transport and travel expenses (https://www.ato.gov.au/individuals-and-families/income-deductions-offsets-and-records/deductions-you-can-claim/work-related-deductions/cars-transport-and-travel). You can only claim the portion of the trip that is directly related to your employment, you may wish to chat to our Tailored technical team (https://www.ato.gov.au/General/ATO-advice-and-guidance/Tailored-technical-assistance/)for further direction.
