To claim a deduction for internet costs, you must prove that you incurred the expenses, and were not reimbursed in any way. What you can't claim - expenses for mobile phone calls or mobile internet where someone else pays the bill or reimburses you. Here is some information on what is and isnt allowed to claim under Mobile phones and internet expenses (https://www.ato.gov.au/individuals/income-deductions-offsets-and-records/deductions-you-can-claim/tools-computers-and-items-you-use-for-work/mobile-phone-mobile-internet-and-other-devices/)
