Hello,
Need help with how to handle miles driven deduction. I am a real estate professional status who bought a business vehicle march 2024. Up until March I drove a personal vehicle where I tracked miles. My wife uses her personal car to do showings periodically. I am deducting the purchase of my work truck and gas used on my 2024 return. How do I account for the miles driven on my personal vehicle prior to buying a work truck and the miles my wife drives? My wife is not receiving a 1099 from the business. We file jointly. Thank you for your help.

On your Schedule C, after you add the new vehicle, you will select Add a Vehicle, then you will be able to add the mileage or actual expenses for the other two vehicles that you used for the real estate business.
She does not need a 1099 to report her business income. She can do this using her own records. When you get to the question on income, just select cash.
