If ADHD affects your work, as it does for many neuro-spicy individuals, you may be eligible for funding, and in some cases, coaching can even be tax deductible. Here’s a quick rundown to help you navigate your options.

Funding for ADHD Coaching: A Game-Changer for Australian Workers

If you’re an Australian resident and ADHD impacts your work, you may qualify for support through the Employment Assistance Fund (EAF). This program provides reimbursement for services that help employees with learning or mental health challenges, including ADHD Coaching.

Who can apply?

• Employees: You don’t need to disclose your ADHD diagnosis to your employer to access this support.
• Self-employed individuals: You’re eligible too!

The EAF can reimburse up to $1,620 (including GST) annually for coaching, training, or education designed to improve workplace performance.

Is ADHD Coaching Tax Deductible?

Another way to make ADHD Coaching more affordable is by checking if it’s tax deductible. Here’s what you need to know:

1. For individuals:

   • You may be able to claim ADHD Coaching as a work-related self-education expense if it directly supports your ability to earn an income. For example, if coaching helps with workplace strategies like task prioritisation, focus, and communication.
   • If your coaching has a mix of personal and professional benefits, a partial deduction might still apply.

   Pro tip: Always consult a tax professional or refer to the ATO’s guidelines for tailored advice. Key resources:

   • TR 98/9 Income tax: Deductibility of self-education expenses.
   • Employee’s Guide to Work Expenses.

2. For employers:

   • Employers can potentially claim ADHD Coaching as a business expense, and in some cases, avoid Fringe Benefits Tax (FBT) if the coaching is a necessity for the employee’s role.
