Another online tool that came live recently is “myDeductions”, which allows taxpayers to upload their receipts and information for deductions for the 2015/16 year.
Taxpayers are advised to simply take a photo of a receipt and upload it.
The deductions covered include work-related expenses, car expenses (it also includes a trip information calculator using Google maps) and other travel expenses, uniforms, self-education, and other types of deductions (such as the cost of managing tax affairs and donations).
Data will be stored in the taxpayer’s mobile device and, at the end of the financial year, can be shared with their tax agent.
