TaxTim Marc said: 29 June 2015 at 14:25 If you are salaried then unfortunately you cannot claim this costs as it is a personal expenses seen as "'capital" do allow you to earn more income from the skills learnt. Similar to going to school/uni. If your employer pays for courses like this then you won't be taxed and they will be able to claim the deduction. |
