If you've earned foreign income this year, it needs to be reported 👀

From overseas employment to foreign rental properties, international income must be declared on your Australian return - even if tax was already paid in another country.

The ATO receives data from overseas tax authorities, so undeclared foreign income often gets flagged during processing.

On Friday, Domenic, Dina, Kelsey, and Jacky’s parents travelled to Sydney to support Jacky and attend the Australian Accounting Awards, where she was named a finalist in the “Young Australian of the Year” category.

Jacky completed a series of formal written and video submissions, showcasing her excellence, contributions to the community, and commitment to being an inspirational role model for young Australians.

Through this rigorous selection process, Jacky was successfully recognised as a finalist for this prestigious award.

We are incredibly proud of Jacky and the continued dedication, passion, and contribution she brings to our firm, our clients, and those around her. It was a privilege to sit beside her on the night and celebrate this well-deserved recognition of the positive impact she makes every day.

Home office deductions depend on whether the space is used exclusively for work.

If you have a dedicated room used solely as an office, you may be able to claim both occupancy costs (rent) and running costs (electricity, internet) based on the floor area percentage of your home.

If the space is shared or used occasionally for work, you're limited to the fixed rate method at 70 cents per hour (for the 2024-2025 FY), which covers running costs only. Occupancy cost deductions don't apply.

The spare bedroom that doubles as a guest room falls into the second category. A room used solely for work qualifies for the first ✍️

The laptop on your dining table doesn't turn the room into a home office just because you answer emails there between breakfast and dinner 😢

A dedicated home office means *exclusive* work use. WHICH MEANS 👇

A space that's genuinely set aside for work and not also serving as the place where your family eats, your kids do homework, and you store the good china.

You can absolutely claim work-from-home running costs at 70 cents per hour for working at that dining table.

What you can't do is claim a percentage of your rent on a room that spends most of its time being a dining room.

The ATO's test is simple: if someone could reasonably walk in and use the space for something other than work, it's not exclusive use. Your dining table fails that test every time someone sits down for a meal.

"The ATO won't know" is a bold assumption for someone who just deposited $8,000 cash while declaring $45,000 annual income.

The ATO data-matches your bank accounts, cross-references business expenses against declared income, and compares your lifestyle spending to what you've reported earning.

They're quite good at noticing when the numbers don't add up.

The ATO's cracking down on holiday home deductions.

If your "rental property" isn't actually available for rent during school holidays, Christmas, or Easter - the times people actually want to rent holiday homes - your deductions may be at risk 👀

"My accountant will fix it" - your accountant can't fix what isn't recorded 👀

Missing invoices, unrecorded cash payments, and personal expenses mixed with business spending don't get magically reconstructed at tax time (unfortunately)!
