    I was audited by the IRS on my 2010 return. Because of a large per diem (300 nights out) I took on form 2106.

    They wanted me to justify the days away from home. Which I did and they summarily closed the file.

    We are working for a company and have plenty of expenses being out 314 days last year. It seems being a business owner may be easier. LOL that was just a joke, please do not attack me.

    If you mean did I have OTHER unreimbursed business expenses included on line 21 schedule A, only a small amount. The bulk of the expense was per diem.
