WORKING FROM HOME DURING COVID-19

​I am writing this blog as a result of the Government and Health recommendations encouraging people to work from home.
 

I am aware and acknowledge that we are experiencing unprecedented challenges in our lives and that we are making choices and decisions that are difficult and that may greatly impact our lives.
 
For tax purposes, you can claim a deduction in your individual tax return for the expenses you incur when you work from home. Some of these expenses include mobile phone, internet, scanners, printers, office furniture, electricity etc.
 
In order to claim these expenses, you will need to keep certain records. If you are able to keep these records in real time, it will make it easier to provide that information later when we prepare your next individual tax return.
