Hi,
My boss recently opened a second store.  Can I claim deduction for travelling from the first store to second store?
Thanks.

you can deduct travel from home to alternative work place, or travel from work place to alternative work place, therefore, travelling between two workplaces are definitively deductible.

不是说从家里到工作地点的travel是不能claim的吗？还是说换了一个临时的工作地点，那么家到这个临时地点的travel就可以claim了吗？谢谢

My cousin part time job gross income is around $9000 but the tax withheld is around $1600. There should be some errors about the group cert. Should I bother or just ignore the situation when doing the tax lodgement? Thanks in advance.

he should lodge his tax return, this that's his only income, he would get the 1600 back. he should discuss with the company's payroll officer if he thinks there is a problem with the withholding

Hi David,

My wife and I came to Australia on visa 457 and in Aug 2009, I ceased the employment with the company and returned to China. Some days later, I received the notification from Immigration Department to mention our visa got cancelled in Oct 2009 accordingly. My question is when should we be considered as stopped being an Australia resident, which will impact the tax-free threshold? Aug or Oct? Many thanks!

Just got one more question, after leaving Australia, did I immediately become a non-resident for tax purpose for part of the year? If so, then in Income->Gross Interest part, do I only need to enter the amount collected in Jul and Aug 2009 and leave the remaining amount into the second screen as interest received for non-resident for tax purpose? Thanks again!

楼主很有知识水准啊 赞一个！
这里问个问题 两个人的投资房分开保税还能一人100%一个人0%啊？
stamp duty是不可以放在borrowing cost里的吧。

请问买自住房贷款的话是不是要有合理的交税记录呀？比如说，如果生意一直是亏损的不交税的话，银行很难给你贷款。只有生意赢利了，可以交税了，银行才会贷款

based on the information you provided so far, you ceased to be an australian tax resident on the day you left, your tax free threshold has to be apportioned too. if you have money left in the australian bank account, you need to advise to the bank the change in tax residency so they can withheld the tax correctly.

second job will have higher withholding, this is not unusual. if the employer has withheld too much from you. then you can get the excess tax back through your annual tax return

有两个问题想请教您：

1. 自己管理的投资房，如何证明房租收入呢？都需要哪些文件？报税时ATO 会核实么？
2. 怎样的出租合同才是对ATO有效的？一定要fair trading 提供的那种么？

非常感谢！

from tax point of view

1. there is no law preventing you from receiving cash rent. however, if you report your rental income much less than market, it is highly possible that you are be audited very soon
2. they are two separate things. i am not quite sure what you are trying to ask.

809536220

1、如何理解以下内容：
  You must have written evidence for your laundry and dry-cleaning expenses if:
  ---in the case of laundry expenses, the amount of your claim is greater than $150, and
  ---your total claim for work-related expenses exceed $300-the $300 does not include car and meal allowance, award transport payments allowance and travel allowance expenses.

   Q1. Work-related clothing, laundry and dry-cleaning部分，工厂给员工提供工作服，但有时我会带回来自己洗，洗衣费150刀之内不需要书面证明吗？

   Q2. Other work-related expenses部分，我全年meal allowance$1398（有工资单作证）已超过$300，但其它开销，如眼镜、买保护用的护膝护腕护腰等protective clothing没有书面证明，这些就不能claim了吗？

  是不是与工作相关的所有费用如超过300刀就需要提供书面证明了？包括洗衣费、meal allowance等等。

  但从以上字面理解，这300刀不包括meal allowance在内的，所以我的其它开销如洗衣费（最多$150)+其它(最多$300)=$450不需要书面证明，对吗？

2、是不是所有输入数据，如年度工资和银行利息，只填写整数部分？如利息$210.95，就填写$210.
