Does Amazon Prime Membership Fee count as Office Supple Expense ?

If audited, you would need to believably prove to the auditor that the membership was 100% used for your self-employment and you derived no personal benefits (made no personal purchases and did not use the streaming video and other content).  Or, you would need some kind of written record showing what percentage of the membership was allocated to the business and why.  

 

(Generally, it is difficult to claim a business deduction for expenses that are mixed business and personal because you need to have some reasonable written method to allocate the expenses.)

Yes, if you use the benefits for business purposes then you can claim it as a business expense.  If you use it for both business and personal reasons, then prorate it and do not claim the full amount as a business expense.  

 

If the main purpose is for purchasing office supplies, claim the expense in that section.  Or, you can enter it as Other Business Expenses where you can type your own description and amount for the expense.
