I am an independent contractor filing a 1099 Misc.form. Can I deduct the cost for taking public transportation (Subway and shuttle fares) to and from the office?

Commuting expenses are not deductible. It doesn't matter whether you are an independent contractor or an employee.

Those are commuting expenses and are not deductible.... but if you go to the employer's office are you not really an employee ?
