Accessing the new DDCTNS schedule

You can access the Deductions schedule like any other schedule in Tax, from Preparation > Schedule > Deductions schedule (DDCTNS)

Using the DDCTNS schedule

If you're claiming a deduction in any of the labels below, you'll need to complete a DDCTNS schedule.

  • D1 Work Related Car Deductions
  • D2 Work Related Travel Expenses
  • D3 Work Related Clothing, Laundry and Dry Cleaning Expenses
  • D4 Work Related Self Education Expenses
  • D5 Other Work-Related Expenses

  • D10 Cost of Managing Tax Affairs
  • D12 Personal Superannuation Contributions

D11 - Deductible Amount of Undeducted Purchase Price of a Foreign Pension or Annuity is not part of the deductions schedule. This is because D11 has only one label with no changes to show in the main tax return. The ATO are looking at making some changes for this label in the future.

The ATO have introduced a new Deductions schedule (DDCTNS) attached to a 2019 Individual tax return. If you're a claiming deductions in a 2019 individual tax return, you'll need to enter the details of the deduction as a line entry (granular) in this new DDCTNS schedule. This is a mandatory schedule for all 2019 Individual tax return where you're claiming a deduction.

Changes in Tax

  • You can access the DDCTNS schedule like any other schedule from the Preparation menu or from Worksheets on the left side of the tax return.
  • Data entry for any deduction label in a 2019 individual tax return is via the DDCTNS schedule or any supporting schedules which will integrate to the DDCTNS schedule.
  • There is a limit on the maximum allowable records for each deduction label. See the table for more details.

Rolling over deductions from 2018 to 2019

We've made structural changes to the software and replaced some of the worksheets and dissection grids. This is done to fit in the new DDCTNS schedule.

Hence, the existing deductions schedule from 2018 will not rollover into 2019.
