Hi @Keskar90
Try reading this information on conferences and seminars to asses if there is a sufficient connection with this conference and your current work to consider it a deduction.
The key thing to note is how any travel expenses would need to be apportioned between the work and private components of your trip. For example if 80% of your time away was spent on personal travel and only 20% was work related, you would only claim 20% of the costs as a deduction.
