Hi Anthony

Thank you for your question.

I'm not an Accountant, however, in a quick search I came across this website that might be quite helpful.

Hi Anthony,

Work related expenses can only be claimed if there is a direct link to the income derived. Typically only travel relating to keeping the insurance going is the only item that can claimed. Also tax agent fees and donations made if any, and income protection insurance premiums.

Hope this helps.

Kind regards,
