I'm a company driver, and this question is more so for those times I have to pay at a pilot or T/A for a night. Not for parking during home time.
Is having to pay for parking Tax Deductible.

It is a tax write off, parking, shower, Walmart receipts, food receipts, if you can tie it to work somehow than it’s a tax write off.

Boots, Gps, tools etc etc etc no write off..not even your cpa fee is deductible.
Was actually what made me buy my truck and start a S-Corp. I’m listed as a W-2 and pay myself so little they will never receive another dime from my income tax. Anything I need the Corp buys for me.401-Alex, silverspur, Siinman and 7 others Thank this. -
That said i only paid myself $45K last year lol and actully showed a loss with my transmision in the 579 and my new truck. Rest was pure tax writeoffs. Basically if your an owner op find a good accountant, scan recipts for EVERYTHING. And if they can do a duduction, then your going to get it.
Think i had almost 24k in writeoffs on small items. Would need to double check the exact amount.hope not dumb twucker, Concorde, Constant Learner and 1 other person Thank this. -
I cook all my own food on the truck and I try and eat healthy which isn’t cheap. I eat a lot of things like organic chicken salmon and steak and such. I easily spend $200 a week out on the road on groceries alone. I feel like, even if you are a company driver that should be a tax write off for all of us. Whatever expenses we endure out on the road. It’s not the same as sitting at home in front of the grill with your family or friends. Maybe it’ll change in the coming years and we can write some of it off.
