Can I write off the additional mileage on my car? I drive FT for a pizzeria and I am right around 15K miles in 2024 and I only receive a partial reimbursement at my work.

I receive $.28 per mile through work but, I drove almost 15,000 miles this past year and wondered if I can claim any of that.

Sorry---W-2 employees cannot deduct job-related expenses on a federal return.  Job-related expenses were eliminated as a federal deduction for W-2 employees by the tax laws that changed for 2018 and beyond.  Your state tax laws might be different in AL, AR, CA, HI, MN, NY or PA.

 

 

If you live in a state that lets you deduct job-related expenses, the information will flow from your federal return  to the state return, so enter it in Federal>Deductions and Credits>Employment Expenses>Job-Related Expenses

Do you get a W-2?  If so, you can’t deduct mileage.
