How many of you are tracking and recording mileage for tax purposes?
Second question, I have always assumed the first game has some "included" mileage factor into it, which is why the second game is less money. I can check with my assignor, but if thats true, how does one factor this into their mileage claim for tax purposes?
Maybe the third question should be...how many of you pay taxes?  |
1. I record mileage for every game, local meeting, and any other travel I do for officiating. I record everything in a spreadsheet (I prefer Google Docs, so I can access the spreadsheet from multiple platforms).
2. As Rich points out, it doesn't matter. Income is income, and expenses are expenses.
3. I've paid tax on every dime I've ever earned. For one thing, in my state you'll lose your license if convicted of tax evasion or related crimes. To me it's worth a couple hundred bucks a year not to run this risk.
