What you can't deduct on your tax return
WROC Rochester First
CPA Anthony Mangiameli of Insero & Associates and the New York State Society of CPAs discussed some of the items that cannot be deducted on your tax return Monday on News 8 at Sunrise. "There are a lot of expenses that individuals are going to considering when filing a tax return, whether they're going to take a standard deduction or they're itemizing," said Mangiameli. "One of the biggest misconceptions is that individuals believe that they can deduct the mileage of their normal commute from their home to their base of business." There are some exceptions.  "Let's say your normal daily commute from home to work is twenty miles, and you spend fifty business miles on the day, that thirty miles in excess of your normal commute, you'll be able to deduct," Mangiameli explained.
