Very true, some accountants let you claim a home office and some won't, some let you claim your car park pass and some won't
It's a joke really as it should be the same across the board, and the accountant is only your tax advisor so if he advised you of an expense and you disagree you should be able to submit it still and if required at a later date it's up to you to argue it out with the revenue people as the accountant advised against it
Unfortunately they are all a bunch of crooks
My biggest gripe is not been able to claim for a car when I live an hour away by car and my contract requires a one hour standby on the roster, I need a car to fulfil it there fore it's a required business cost to me
Long and short of it is though I spend far to much time worrying about this stuff and talking about it with colleagues when the time could be better spent say reading the ops manual or studying jeppy plates!
