This section is for all travellers who are working their way around Australia, whether they are backpackers, fruit pickers, shearers, trades people operating as a business or bar keepers and all the occupations in between. If you sleep away from your home due to your work you have the potential to be able to claim your car, food and accommodation as a tax deduction. But you must have good records. Below are some worksheets and notes to help you put together the information you need to substantiate your claim. To the right are links to more free information on the concept, how to collate your information so we can prepare your tax return, other services available for travellers and if you prefer the personal approach look up the workshop timetable for when Julia will be in your area or contact her to come to you.
