I have a project that requires me to rent a car to travel from my home in NYC metro to suburban NJ. Since it's a week rental, Can I expense parking in my neighborhood as street parking is limited?

Taking the train from NYC can be painful. There aren't than many in the morning plus it can be a real pain to travel to Penn. I rent a car 10/10 times and yes I would expense parking

Public transit isn't quite an option for this client site so mostly everyone rents a car

I'd park it in Jersey and use public transit from there...

Is your project long term? If yes, you should buy a car and expense the mileage, then use it to pay off your car 👌

Yes

Where is suburban NJ that you can't take the train?

How long is it going to take you to drive? Will you also be expensing tolls? It may be cheaper if you do an monthly rental.

My client is im bum fuk Princeton. I take the train and then Uber! Fuk looking for parking in the city. It's still cheaper than NY parking

I live in bum buk Princeton 😬

^ I bet it's a nice house though

Yeah I still live with my rents.. Recently bought a foreclosure in JC so I'll finally be moving out once I'm done with the renovations!

Living in Van. Previously lived in Toronto. Obviously rent prices are high as is cost of living. Generally go out and spend more often living in a city. Boyfriend and I on good salary but not saving much due to the above. Before we move home to our own country, we’d love to spend a year close to Vancouver where rent is cheaper, temptation is less, to save. A commute to Vancouver 1-2 times a month needs to be possible (his job). That can be a flight if it’s not crazy. Thoughts? Recommendations?
