From financialnewswire.com.au: CPA Australia advises Australians to avoid seeking tax advice from online ‘finfluencers’, particularly on platforms like TikTok, due to the prevalence of misleading claims regarding work-related tax deductions.

Examples include outrageous suggestions such as claiming costs for pets as guard dogs or designer handbags as laptop bags, which are often incorrect or exaggerated.

Professional tax agents provide the most reliable advice.
