Sorry, no business attire or shoes, unless you're talking about special uniforms that aren't suitable for street wear. This has been tested in tax court and in audits time after time, and the taxpayer lost every time. Normal business clothes don't qualify because they are suitable for everyday street wear, nor does the expense of cleaning them. Also, you can take mileage OR actual auto expenses, such as maintenance, gas, insurance, depreciation, etc. If you take mileage, the only other auto expenses allowed are property tax and interest. Just in case anyone's interested. |
