Want to correctly claim as many work-related expenses as possible?

Make sure you are claiming all work-related expenses you are entitled too by reading up on the ATO's occupation specific guides. If this means mumbo jumbo to you than definitely use a Tax Agent who can help you identify and maximise the expenses you can claim.


The ATO has developed three new occupation specific guides to help taxpayers correctly claim their work-related expenses. Below are the links for employee plumbers, IT professionals and Australian Defence Force members. Feel free to share this with a family member or friend that may fall into one of these professions .

• Plumber employees - claiming work-related expenses
• IT professionals - claiming work-related expenses
• Australian Defence Force members - claiming work-related expenses. 

If you have a different occupation to the above three, but are still interested in what expenses you can claim than refer to Industries and occupations.  You might find your occupation or a similar one to give you some guidance on work-related expenses you can claim.
