Taking Per-Diem, Yay or Nay?

aint no argument, most know and are guilty of just sitting and crying woe is me.

 

Go a Google search for the IRS withholding calculator. Put your info in. The perdiem shouldn't be included in your income on the calculator. If you get get too little withheld you'll pay a penalty that will wipe out any interest you made. To answer whether or not you take perdiem, I'd take the per diem because it's a little more money in my pocket that I can put away how I choose.

 

If you're really concerned sbout it, go talk to an accountant. Or take your advice from here. The ignorant experts have already chimed in.
