税务小白求助: 这算是work related expense 吗?

changju

LZ 的Primary address 在墨尔本, 然而在rural area 做 part time, 所以是在rural area 租房的, 请问这个房租能够作为work related expense 吗? 已经打过电话给salary package 公司, 他们说能够作为work related expense, 然而这2 天看了论坛里的帖子, 觉得好像又不成以。

请问 哪一个大神有理解的吗?

多谢多谢

Generally, a deduction is only allowable if you are travelling in the course of your employment duties. It would not be possible for you to claim the rental deduction as you are living away from home, not travelling.

Please refer to the ATO ID 2002/829 for guidance on the deductibility of acco妹妹odation, food and incidental expenses when a taxpayer is living away from home:

应该是不成以的，记得以前学过，由于这个住处的地位远近和任务实际内容并无必定分割。
换句话说，住远与住近都是本人的选择，和以后任务性质的并无瓜葛，所以不克不及claim。
