Working from home? Your hours need a paper trail.

For 2025-26, the ATO's fixed rate is 70 cents for every hour you worked from home. It covers things like your internet, phone, electricity and stationary and computer consumables.

To claim it, the ATO needs records of the hours you worked from home. A timesheet, roster or diary works. An estimate doesn't.

The new $1,000 tax deduction: what it is, and what it isn’t.

It’s a deduction, not a refund. It reduces the income you pay tax on by up to $1,000, so on a 30% tax rate it saves roughly $300.

It’s also not for the return you’re lodging now. It starts with 2026–27, so you’ll see it when you lodge next year.
