Claim Travel Expenses on Taxes

If you have to travel for business, the U.S. Internal Revenue Service allows you to deduct certain expenses in the interest of promoting business. As this is a common area of tax abuse, you must keep accurate records to substantiate your expenses, including receipts and written descriptions of the reason for the expense. Depending on whether you are an employee, business owner or independent contractor, you will use different forms to deduct your expenses before you transfer the amount to your IRS Form 1040.
