Study expenses for my son?

Posted 17 June 2013

My son studies away from home and I pay all his expenses. He has a study loan. I pay the interest on his study loan amounts to R 1000 per month. Can I claim any of his expenses back?

Unfortunately not, personal expenses cannot be deducted for tax purposes.
