DON'T FORGET ALL TAX DEDUCTIONS ON CAR USED FOR BUSINESS One of the many deductions a taxpayer b entitled to, but often forgets, b the cost of using hb car for traveling on the job, according to H A R Block, America’s Largest Tax Service. On-the-job travel expenses are allowed as adjustments to income says H & R Block, and may be taken even if the taxpayer chooses not to itemize hb deductions and elects to take the standard deduction. Such travel expenses may be deducted only if they are not reim bursed by your employer. Abo, the cost of operating your automobile from your’home to your job (com muting) b not deductible. For example: a company’s sales manager has to use his car to drive around to several of the company’s retail outlets. He is allowed to write off the cost of hb driving expenses. He can use the standard formula of claiming 124 a mile, which, for tax purposes, covers all costs of operat ing an automobile, or he can itemize all hb automobile expenses such as gas, oil, insurance, depreciation and repairs. The standard 124 a mile de duction b good for the first 15,000 business miles, and every mile after the first 15,000 is deducted at 94 per mile. H A R Block cautions that the most overlooked deduction is that of traveling from one job to a second or part-time job. Thus, moon lighters are entitled to deduct automobile driving costs getting from one job to another (but not back home again as that would con stitute commuting). By the same token,’ military reservbts should remember that travel costs to their weekly or monthly meetings are also deductible if held outside the general area of their tax home.
