Q: My employer paid for my annual health screening and dental check-up fees. Can I still claim tax relief for these expenses?
A: No. Only medical expenses, including health screenings and dental check-ups you pay out of your own pocket are eligible for tax relief. If your employer fully pays for or reimburses these expenses, they are not eligible for tax relief.
Wishing you plentiful tax savings!
