Deductions & credits

What is your status in regards of employment?  Are you an employee of the company where you receive a W-2 each tax year?  Or are you a self-employed independent contractor where your income is reported on a Form 1099-MISC or other type of statement NOT a W-2?

 

If you are a W-2 employee then none of the employee business expenses for the use of your personal vehicle are deductible on a federal tax return due to the tax code changes affecting tax years 2018 thru 2025.
