Coalition abolishes self-education cap

Minister for Education Christopher Pyne has welcomed the abolishment of the cap.

“With the vast bulk of claims for self-education expenses coming from those earning less than $80,000, this was a cap on those on the frontline of the health and education sector,” says Pyne.

The previous Government announced a cap of $2,000 on tax deductibility for self education expenses as a part of their $2.8 billion worth of cuts to higher education.

“Removing this restriction to self-education will help to encourage investment in education and skills,” says Pyne.
