Commute reimbursement
 

I didn't want to hack mike's thread so I'll just start my own.

I drive quite a long commute ~50 miles each way. Is there anything that the IRS offer's in the form of a reimbursment?SmileWavy

Thanks guys!

Unless you are contract, then no.

boo. Way to crush my dreams red.

buy a motorcycle..

Wait a second I was contract for 6 months through a temp agency. Is that a lead?

Move. If over 50 miles can file for relocation credit. See IRS pub 521: http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p521.pdf


OH...I forgot. Not an option. You're moving in with GF:D

Thankfully I am moving may 1st.

Marc how much do you charge by the hour? The way gas keeps going up I may be able to afford you!

Already find a new girl to live with or did you settle things with the old one?

:p

no settlement. And never found out about the fb messages sidney. Haven't gotten another one, but man was I worried.

Hey here's an idea.... You should transfer to your companies office here in Weatherford... Cuz its looking like my room mate is about to get shipped to the great sandbox in the east.....

I wonder if they have any openings for a jr geologist...wait a second why on earth would I want to move to okyhoma.

Cuz I'm here and the rents cheap and there be college tail running around in droves.

I moved 2400 miles in 2008 for work and couldn't write it off because the total expenses were way less than the standard deduction and I didn't have enough other write-offs to make itemizing worthwhile. My rental income washed out my mortgage int., prop. taxes and depreciation.
