Interesting question, I am a self employed private tutor, my wife gets a W2 and We file jointly. I was on the need of a phone (mine was crashing often) which is a very important tool on my business. The thing is my wife bought me a phone as a father's day present so the invoice of the phone I use daily is on my wife's name, can I still do the write off with that invoice?</P> Wed, 11 Feb 2026 04:05:08 GMT Daniro 2026-02-11T04:05:08Z https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/self-employed-group/discussion/self-employed-write-off-with-invoice-not-on-my-name/01/3175956#M12745 <P>Hi.
