Frequently Asked Questions
What is the IRS standard mileage rate?
The IRS sets a per-mile rate each year for business driving. For 2024, it's 67 cents per mile. This rate covers gas, insurance, depreciation, and maintenance — you don't need to track those expenses separately if you use the standard rate.
Can I deduct mileage for my commute?
No. The IRS doesn't allow deductions for your regular commute from home to your primary workplace. However, trips from your office to client sites, between job locations, or from a home office to a business destination are deductible.
Do I need receipts for mileage deductions?
You don't need gas receipts if you use the standard mileage rate, but you do need a written log showing the date, destination, business purpose, and miles for each trip. This tool creates that log for you.
Standard mileage rate vs actual expenses — which is better?
The standard rate is simpler and often better for people who drive a fuel-efficient car. Actual expenses can be better if you have a high-cost vehicle. You choose one method for each vehicle and generally stick with it.
