The IRS allows $.24 per mile for business travel. Currently DEC allows $.225, or at least that's what I've been getting. Consequently I had to figure how many miles I drove last year on business and multiply by a penny and a half so as to claim it as an unreimbursed business expence on my tax return. Does anyone have any idea when DEC is going to increase the mileage reimburssment up to $.24? John G.

the last time i checked (lookign for the same change you mention) i pulled a copy of the relevent policy. as of mid-January (i think the policy was dated Jan 11, 1989) the reimbursement for business miles was still 22.5�/mile. the updates to the orange book seem to come quarterly (??), so maybe we can expect a change soon (wishful thinking...). /s/logging_miles_on_a_panzer | |||||

I've been with DEC for close to 18 years, and the DEC reimbursement always has lagged behind the IRS. (... and yes, I too have played the game of multiplying total mileage by pennies to get a little extra off my taxes.) /Marvin |
