As an independent contractor, typically, commuting expenses from your residence to your primary place of employment are never deductible. If you do "in fact" have a primary place of employment such as office space you own or rent for everyday business away from your residence, then you may be able to claim mileage from that primary employment location, to the temporary work location.
If you claim a home office and that home office is your primary place of employment where you conduct a majority of your business for the year, then you may be able to deduct mileage for the temporary location.
