Lost or destroyed tax records? Don't panic!

Now and then, taxpayers may find themselves in a situation where they simply have no records to back up a tax claim. There can be many reasons for this, such as losing documents (either paper or electronic) when moving home, or technology failures that end up with the same result (or at worst even destroy records).

And with a hot summer predicted, let's not forget the very real danger of natural disasters and the devastation these can have on people's lives, not just their financial concerns.

It's try that in these modern times the ATO's systems are able to pre-fill quite a lot of data, and this is only going to increase over time, which can mean that taxpayers can relax a little more about having to stay on top of record keeping. But there can still be situations where essential back-up documents or other evidence is required that may be unavailable for one reason or another.
