    you can use 40 percent of your house hold bills as a right off if you dont get your number down you will be paying a good penny

    you can also right off gas for going to get parts and handle bussiness thing but not just going to work. you can write off meals such as red lobster for meals and enterment if you took someone there. thats why i always talk about work for a few minutes...lol

    Do you use 40% of your house as an office? careful with that one.

    if your office is only an 8X8 space, and your house is 2000 SF, you can only use 64/2000 for a tax deduction.
