The ATO has announced four key priorities that it will focus on this 2022 tax time.
- Record-keeping
- Work-related expenses
- Rental property income and deductions
- Capital gains from crypto assets, property and shares
Before claiming income tax deductions for expenses, taxpayers must ensure:
- they spent the money themselves and were not reimbursed
- if an expense is for both income-producing and private use, only the portion relating to producing income may be claimed; and
- they must have a record to prove it.
