Tax questions

Common questions before you lodge

General information only. Your actual claim depends on your role, records, allowances, expenses and how each expense was used.

What deductions can Defence Force members claim?

You may be able to claim expenses directly connected to earning your income, not private in nature, not reimbursed, and supported by records.

Can I claim uniforms and protective items?

You may be able to claim eligible occupation-specific clothing, protective items and maintenance costs where the expense relates to your work and you have records.

Can I lodge online?

Yes. The online upload option is designed for clients who want to lodge without needing a face-to-face appointment.

What if my tax is more complex?

Book an appointment if you have rental property income, capital gains, business income, deployment-related questions, unusual deductions or overdue returns.
