Are you referring to deductions for meal expenses? Are you self-employed? Employees are not allowed deductions for meals. Business meals may be deductible, but certain requirements must be met. See the information below related to deducting business meals on your taxes:
thank you for the info. i hope everyone is safe & well. based off the chart provided in link, company holiday party is 100% deductible.. how should amount be entered in turbotax as it auto calcs 50%? thank you
They are deductible at 100% for self-employed individuals in the circumstances described in the link above. When you are enter the meals in TurboTax, there is a place to enter either 100% deductible meals versus 50% deductible meals. You may need to click the Add expenses for this work button on the self-employment screen for the option to appear.
thank you!
