The Australian taxation system has provisions in place which let taxpayers claim back expenses which relate to their income earning activities.

It's important to understand the types of deductions which may be relevant to your circumstances, such as the general work-related deductions which exists for all taxpayers, as well as the deductions which relate to particular professions.

There are allowances for people who work at home, and there are deductions for taxpayers who find themselves living away from home for work.
