Tax Contribution Statements

Remember your APF Union Membership Fees are Tax Deductible!

Member Tax Contribution Statements for the 2024-2025 financial year have been emailed to members. If you haven't received your statement, please check your junk folder before contacting us.

 

APF membership fees are fully tax deductible, and you will need your statement to claim the deduction for your tax. Please ensure you print or save your statement for your records.

 

The Australian Taxation Office (ATO) has provided a handy guide for teachers and education professionals to help you understand what you can and can’t claim this tax time.

 

Remember: 

  1. Records are essential – no proof, no deduction. 
  2. Receipts matter. A bank or credit card statement (on its own) is generally not enough evidence to support a work-related expense claim; you’ll need a receipt.
  3. To be valid, make sure your receipts show the cost, supplier, date of purchase and nature of the goods and/or services.
