Australians are being warned this tax time not to double dip on working from home claims, make sure they have detailed records of expenses and not to lodge their tax returns to early. Each year, about 9 million Australians claim about $25 billion worth of work-related expenses, many relating to working from home. The average claim last financial year was about $3,000. ABC business reporter Nassim Khadem talks to ATO Assistant Commissioner Rob Thomson about what you can and can't claim this tax time.

Editor's note: In the video ATO Assistant Commissioner Rob Thomson says that “you can claim 87 cents per kilometre you travel for work”. He meant to say 85 cents per kilometre.
