Hello all,

I have a question that I cannot seem to find a direct answer to.

I'm self-employed, and this past year I was reimbursed by a client on actual gas receipts-- so, for example, $30 was reimbursed on what I paid for gas, yet I drove say, 100 miles.

Question: Do I treat the $30 as income and deduct the actual mileage on the standard mileage rate @ 56.5/c a mile or do I split the difference between the $30 reimbursed and the 100 miles driven @ 56.5/mile?

Thank you!
