Tax write offs for local drivers

I don't believe that is a requirement.
It makes it easier for sure.
It's been a while for me so things may have changed.

 

I believe you'll need it if you get audited. I always get one every year.

 

Local ltl for over 20 years. Only ever claimed for meals.

 

You might want to have a tax pro that deals with trucking (NOT H & R Block..heads ) do your taxes this year, precisely because they'll know exactly what the regulations regarding meal claims are.

I swear the CRA/government changes the regulations every year just to screw with people that prepare their own tax returns.......

 

Not needed if your return is simple. The home tax software is easy and accurate.

 

The stiletto flip flops?

 

Turbo Tax is OK?
Something else?

 

Standard Turbo Tax is fine.

 

I'll download it an see what I'll get. Long-haul, 3 meals per day. Mostly US side.
No phone deduction, even if my Carrier allows it. Thank you.
