Tax Expense Deduction
31 October 2021 | 6 replies
I am no accountant, but the general rule of thumb for deductible travel is:1 - You’re “traveling” when you’re away overnight or long enough to need sleep.2 - “Business days” are those you spend traveling to business destinations, days where you spend the majority of working hours on your trade or business (four hours and one minute), and days where your personal presence is required at a particular place for a specific and bona fide business purpose.3 - “Business day” costs include 50% of meals plus 100% of lodging, local transportation, incidentals, and your first load of laundry and dry cleaning back home.4 - If your spouse is a bona fide employee, traveling for a bona fide business purpose, you can deduct their costs.5 - Save receipts for all lodging and for any expense over $75.6- Transportation costs include cars, planes, trains, and boats
