As the expense is for Petra's work in the agency, and Alexandra's policy is to reimburse these expenses if tax invoices are presented, when Petra makes a claim for her expense with the receipts attached Alexandra pays her $90.Alexandra is entitled to a GST credit on this reimbursement.Example: Reimbursement of expense payment benefitsKarim's children attend a non-government school. Karim pays their yearly school fees in advance. He also pays for school uniforms. Karim's employer, Maria, agrees to reimburse him these expenses after he gives her all of the relevant receipts and invoices. Maria makes separate payments for the school fees (education is GST-free) and uniforms (taxable).

Both payments to Karim are expense payment benefits.Maria is entitled to a GST credit on the reimbursement for Karim's purchase of taxable school uniforms. However, even though Maria reimbursed the school fees, she cannot claim a GST credit because the cost of education is GST-free.Maria may have a fringe benefits tax (FBT) liability for the reimbursed expenses. Example: AllowancesMiyuki employs Juan in her Melbourne software firm. She asks Juan to attend a conference in Sydney. Miyuki pays Juan a travel allowance of $450. Juan is not expected to repay any of the allowance he does not spend, but he will not be entitled to an additional payment if his expenses exceeds this amount.Miyuki has paid Juan an allowance.

She is not entitled to any GST credits for Juan's expenses, regardless of how much Juan spends.Miyuki may have pay as you go (PAYG) withholding obligations when she pays an allowance. End of exampleSee also:.Payments for notional expensesA payment made to an employee based on a notional (rather than an actual) expense, such as a cents-per-kilometre payment to cover work-related use of an employee's private car, is an allowance, not a reimbursement.
