can you claim parking on tax

In Australia, claiming parking expenses on your tax return is a bit like finding a parking spot in the city—tricky but not impossible. If you're self-employed or use your vehicle for work (excluding commuting), you can claim parking fees as a tax deduction, provided you have legitimate receipts. However, street parking fines or parking at your regular workplace generally won't make the cut. Keep those receipts handy, and don't get creative with the claims, or the taxman might give you a ticket of a different kind.
