SECTION 900-70   Getting written evidence  

900-70(1)    


For the " log book " method of deducting a *car expense, you need to substantiate the expense by getting written evidence. Subdivision 900-E tells you about the evidence you need.

Subdivision 28-F tells you about the " log book " method.


900-70(2)    
(Repealed by No 162 of 2015)


900-70(3)    
If you are using the " log book " method and your expense is for fuel or oil, you do not need to get written evidence of it, because section 28-100 already requires you to keep odometer records for the period when you *held the *car in the income year.
