The five categories
Review home-office costs, professional development, commuting, professional subscriptions and charitable donations under current local rules.
- Home office and work equipment
- Courses, exams and professional literature
- Eligible commuting or travel expenses
- Professional associations and subscriptions
- Approved charitable contributions
Documentation decides
Keep invoices, proof of payment, employer reimbursements and the work-related purpose. A real cost is not automatically a deductible cost.
Claim only what is supportable
Use official guidance and retain records for the required period. If the treatment is unclear or material, ask a local professional.
