Not according to the ATO where the spouse of a tradie is invariably paid a handsome amount to be the 'book keeper', or 'director', or 'accountant', or 'office manager', etc. I'd LOVE to be able to income split like a tradie does... but then I'd actually have to get a real job and not this one that pays pretty well even if I can't income split!
