Q: If I enrol my child for swimming classes, can the fee be claimed under the lifestyle relief?
A: Although swimming is a sport, the swimming classes fee is not eligible for lifestyle relief because the fee is not an expense for the purchase of sports equipment, entrance fee for sports facilities or fee for participating in a sports competition.
Wishing you plentiful tax savings!
