Hi @Jnil,


If you disagree with an audit decision, you have the right to object. You can lodge a formal objection to have the decision reviewed independently.


For short-term rentals, you can claim deductions only for periods when the property was rented out or genuinely available for rent. You can't claim deductions when you use the property privately, offer it to family or friends for free or at reduced rates, or place unreasonable conditions that restrict the likelihood of it being rented.


If you want to lodge an objection, you should provide supporting information that demonstrates your property was genuinely available for rent during the periods you claimed deductions.
