mileage deduction

Driving expense claim

A mileage deduction is a tax deduction for using a personal vehicle for business, medical, charitable, or moving purposes.

The IRS sets a standard rate per mile that taxpayers can claim instead of tracking actual vehicle expenses: I keep a log in my car for the mileage deduction.

The rate varies by purpose and changes annually.
