🎉 40 Years of Moore Lewis & Partners 🎉

This year marks an incredible milestone as Moore Lewis & Partners celebrates 40 years in business.

Forty years ago, Frank Moore opened the doors with a vision of providing trusted advice, building lasting relationships, and supporting clients through every stage of their financial journey. That commitment remains at the heart of everything we do today.

Over the past four decades, we've had the privilege of working alongside individuals, families and businesses, helping them grow, navigate change and achieve their goals. None of this would have been possible without the trust and loyalty of our valued clients, the dedication of our incredible team, and the support of our wider community.

To everyone who has been part of our journey over the past 40 years, thank you. Your support has helped shape Moore Lewis & Partners into the firm it is today, and we look forward to continuing to serve our community for many years to come.

From all of us, thank you for being part of our story.

If you use the logbook method to claim your motor vehicle, you are required to record your odometer reading on 30 June each year.

It's a simple task that ensures you are compliant with ATO rules.

Some tax deductions are more niche than you’d expect…

✔️ Flight attendants: specific footwear (if required by employer)
✔️ Security workers: guard dog expenses 🐕
✔️ Outdoor workers: sunscreen, hats, sunglasses ☀️
✔️ Hairdressers & beauty: professional scissors ✂️

Unusual doesn’t mean unclaimable, but it does need to make sense.

Working from home? You may be able to boost your tax claim 🏡💻

The ATO offers a simple fixed rate of 70c per hour, making it easier to claim your running expenses.

This rate already includes things like:
• Electricity and gas ⚡
• Internet and phone 📱
• Basic office supplies ✏️

So there’s no need to claim those separately.

On top of that, you may also be able to claim:
• Computers and screens 💻
• Office furniture 🪑
• Repairs to work equipment 🔧
The key? Keep good records so you can make the most of what you’re entitled to.

Side hustle income? It all adds up 📈

Whether it’s online sales, freelance work, cash jobs, or interest — it all forms part of your taxable income.

The ATO receives data from sources like:
• Banks
• Platforms
• Payment providers

So it’s easier than ever to keep everything aligned.
The simple approach? Keep track of what you earn and include it in your return so everything stays accurate and stress-free.

“It’s only a small extra, it should be fine.”
It’s a common thought, but it’s worth making sure your claims are accurate.

The ATO looks for patterns, not just big issues, such as:
• Deductions that are a bit higher than expected
• Repeated round numbers
• Claims that don’t quite align with your job

It’s less about the amount, and more about whether everything makes sense and is supported.

“Can I claim my car?”

Really, it depends!
✔️ Driving between jobs or to a client = usually yes
❌ Commuting to your regular workplace = no
That’s the line the ATO cares about.

And if you’re claiming:
• Logbook method = more accurate, more admin
• Cents per km = simpler, capped

Car claims are one of the most reviewed areas, so they are worth getting right.
Unsure? Give our team a call today!

No receipt? Not always game over…
There is a rule, but most people get it wrong.
🧾You can claim up to $300 in work-related expenses without receipts

BUT:
❌ It’s not a free $300
❌ You can’t guess or round up
❌ You still need to explain how you worked it out
⚠️ And it doesn’t cover everything (car + travel rules are different)
💡 If you’re claiming it, you should still have some record such as a bank app or diary.
