Deductions & credits
Yes. Since you are an independent contractor, considered self-employed and have no work location, any miles that you drive related to getting to a work assignment are considered business miles.
To deduct business miles for self-employed in TurboTax Online or Desktop, please follow these steps:
- Once you are in your tax return, click on the “Business"” tab
- Next click on “I’ll choose what I work on” (jump to full list)
- Scroll down the screen until to come to the section “Business Income and Expense”
- Choose “Profit or Loss from Business ” and select start/revisit/update.
- If your business is already listed, choose to "edit"
- You will eventually get to a screen titled "Your () Business"
- Scroll down to Business Expenses and select "Business Vehicle Expense".
