Can I claim my millage as a pizza driver

Yes, if you are itemizing your return instead of taking the Standard Deduction, as long as you are not reimbursed for the mileage you can claim the miles driven while making deliveries but not the miles that were driven to and from your job. 

Your job expenses (mileage and other job-related expenses) would need to be greater than 2% of your AGI and then the rest of your itemized deductions such as mortgage interest, property taxes, other taxes paid, and medical expenses in excess of 10% of your AGI would need to be greater than your standard deduction to receive a benefit from entering your mileage.  

The standard deductions are based on your filing status and are as follows

  • Single or Married Filing Separately   $6,350
  • Married Filing Jointly   $12,700
  • Head of Household    $9,350

The steps are below to do this:

  1. Click on Federal Taxes
  2. Deductions and Credits
  3. Scroll down to Employment Expenses click Show More
  4. Click Start next to Job Expenses for W-2 Income
