Do you have a TurboTax Online account?

We'll help you get started or pick up where you left off.

For tax years 2021 and 2022, business meals if food and beverages were purchased at a restaurant can be deductible at 100%. Normally I do 50%. Is this true?

I see this in the help details but was surprised by this.  Just wanting to confirm that I can deduct at 100% this year.

Yes, for 2021 and 2022, business meals of food and beverage at an actual restaurant are deductible at 100%.

 

  This was put in place to help restaurants after so many closings with Covid.
