My DH claims uniforms, washing, tools, fuel expenses as he has to transport his own tools to & from work (he's an electrician), charities and that's probably about it... we also claim our internet and other school related expenses for the kids through the education refund thingo.
Oh forgot we also claim 50% of our internet & mobile as when I was working I was expected to be able to access emails/work servers etc from home and also DH is required to do the same.
good one i never thought of internet. I have to access work stuff from home. Also can i claim my ivf? And im sure someone mentioned out of pocket medical expenses
yeh I'm not sure of the threshold but you can claim back a percentage of anything over it. Might have to research into that too to see if my Ob fees & scans got me over it.
Home office & depreciation on home office items
I study in a field related to work so all those study-related expenses (including travel to source research material)
Once your kids are in school you can claim the education tax rebate thing, so there can also be a portion of things like internet access, home office, etc, claimed against that. Which is handy given the amount of printer ink & paper DD goes through . Likewise a (small) portion of the school fees is claimable (because our school itemises every cent of them and some of it is to pay for books that hte school buys for the kids).
If you engage in any professional development & purchase books/journals etc you can claim the cost of those PLUS also depreciation on the "professional library".
