I also have regular w2 income for the rest of the year. If I do the actual expenses, am I only able to enter the cost of gas or car repairs that occurred in those three months?

Since you worked as an independent contractor and used your vehicle for business, you can only deduct the expenses related to your vehicle for the months that it was in service for the business. Turbo Tax will help you get your car into the program with all the associated expenses, and let you know what you can deduct based on business miles driven over the three months compare to personal miles.&nbsp;</P> Mon, 03 Jun 2019 20:04:10 GMT https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/taxes/discussion/yes-since-you-worked-as-an-independent-contractor-and-us/01/340314#M142205 WillK 2019-06-03T20:04:10Z
