Hello,
I am curious if anyone else has recieved a letter from the ATO titled ''Help with claiming your rental expences'' that starts ''We are writing because you claimed interest expences for your rental property in your 2009 income tax return.....'' They arent asking for anything they claim they are just providing info (a info sheet was attached). Does anyone think they are targetting rental property claims, or me in particular? Or is this just what it claims to be helpful information.
I really want to avoid an audit on my rental properties not because i believe anything is wrong but i have moved between cities and the older paperwork is a bit scattered. The last thing i need is to spend days finding wading through endless ancient paperwork boxes for the tax man. I reakon if they audit you and find nothing wrong they should pay you for your wasted time
