Lost or destroyed records- The ATO
There may be time when your records are accidentally lost or destroyed – for example, if your home is burgled or burnt.
In these instances, we can allow you to claim a deduction for certain expenses if eitherof the following apply:
- you have a complete copy of a lost or destroyed document
- we are satisfied that you took reasonable precautions to prevent the loss or destruction and, if the document was written evidence, it is not reasonably possible to obtain a substitute document.
