The Australian Taxation Office (ATO), the legal agency, and the Australian Government’s main tax revenue collection body are responsible for administering the Australian federal taxation system and managing the superannuation system for Aussies and other related matters.<\/span><\/p>\n

With the Australian financial year 2020 coming to an end on 30th June, taxpayers are scurrying to collect their entitled tax refund from the 1st day of July.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Claim your work-related expenses:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

While working, you may have incurred many expenses, such as<\/span><\/p>\n

\n
• \u00a0Travel and commuting expenses relating to work.<\/span><\/li>\n
• \u00a0Work from home expenses like internet and phone bill and buying office equipment.<\/span><\/li>\n
• Buying or dry cleaning of clothes if your office requires a specific outfit or protective covering.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
• Any training or courses you took to learn work-related skills.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

  Be careful- some expenses could be for both work and personal use. For example, you bought a plane ticket to attend an office meeting abroad, but you may have gone shopping at the duty-free shops during the transit. In such cases, only claim a tax deduction for work expenses. Your expenses must be spent while making money through your work.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
