I should be able, however, to deduct the mileage for the use of my car while working during the two week period (near my "Tax Home") at the 62.5 cents per mile rate.
IRS Topic 511 Business Travel Expenses states: "4. Using your car while at your business destination. You can deduct actual expenses or the standard mileage rate, as well as business-related tolls and parking fees. If you rent a car, you can deduct only the business-use portion for the expenses."
Thank you,
Mel
