No idea how this works so bear with me...

If your net medical expenses are over the Australian Tax Office’s (ATO) threshold, you can claim an offset of 20 per cent (20 cents in the dollar) in your tax return.

To claim the medical expenses tax offset in your tax return, you need to know the total amount of medical expenses you incurred for yourself and your dependants. You then deduct any refunds from Medicare Australia, your private health fund or any other reimbursements that relate to those expenses receiving during the financial year.
So... I assume it means out of pocket expenses can be claimed?
Ok, so can we claim the sperm we've imported? We've paid $1060 per month just for sperm, and we can't get any of that back through Medicare right now, but our clinic said they think you can claim it at the end of the financial year, as well as the registration fee for the clinic etc. Does anyone know anythign about this?

Also, my partner is the one having the treatment, but because we are registered under the Family Safety Net (whatever it's called lol) I can claim expenses off my income right? Seems silly to do it the other way around since my partner won't be paying tax so it won't actually offset anything! So I can claim on behalf of us against on my tax return?
