Claiming travel/fuel costs fo ABN holder.
I have to travel from home to pickup a vehicle 25km away at a depot . I then work and get paid as a subcontacter. I use my home as an office

Can I claim fuel costs from home to work to pick up the vehicle.

I realise if I were a PAYG tax payer I coudlnt claim this travel as a tax deduction

Gee, my contractor charges me per hour for the travel time required for the vehicle pick-up and drop off. Then he does his PAYG with his accountant.
I think, any cost related to you that requires you to perform the work (business task) is claimable, but the best would be to talk with your accountant.
Our contractors all claim travel/fuel costs but they require to travel to various locations. DO you travel always to only one and the same location?
