If you earn a fixed salary and commission from the same employer and the commission is less than 50 % of the salary, can a deduction for home office space be utilised?
The employer confirms in writing that the employee works from home only and the employee incurred expenses to set up and amintian the home office. The salary was structured in a way to also include a Travel allowance and full logbook detail is being kept
