IRS Daily Commute Questions

Daily Commute Questions:

1) Does the IRS have a number of miles that is considered a Average Daily Commute, i.e. 25 miles each way? 

  • Does it apply to both Company Cars and Personal vehicles used for company purposes?

2) If a sales person works out of their Home Office, and uses a company, are they docked mileage for a daily commute, i.e. 25 miles each way, to visit customers if they leave and return on the same day?

  • What if they leave for the week, i.e. leave on Monday, return on Thursday, seeing customers all week.  Are they to deduct an average daily commute, i.e. 25 miles, for the outbound and return?
