Real-World Use Cases

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Claiming commute miles from home to your regular office. The IRS does not allow reimbursement for regular commuting.

• Not keeping a mileage log. The IRS requires contemporaneous records including date, destination, business purpose, and miles driven.

• Using the standard mileage rate when actual expenses would yield a larger deduction (or vice versa). Compare both methods.

• Forgetting that the IRS rate changes annually. Using a prior year rate will result in incorrect calculations.
