Miners Tax Deductions

Are you a Miner and pay a lot of tax? Do you know what your entitlements are when it comes to deductions? Read on to find out what you might be eligible to claim.

To claim a deduction for work related expenses;

  • you must have spent the money yourself and weren’t reimbursed
  • it must be directly related to earning your income
  • you must have a record to prove it.*

You can only claim the work-related part of expenses. You can’t claim a deduction for any part of the expense that relates to personal use.
