Mileage expense for airport drop off? I live about 65 miles from the airport in a rural area without Uber or Lyft. There are a few local services that do airport runs, but they book up in advance. My wife and I primarily work from so we only have 1 car. For a recent trip the car service was only available for the return airport transfer so my wife dropped me off at the airport. I’m planning to expense the round trip mileage - it would still be cheaper than the ride service. Thoughts?

Expense it!

Your firm should have policies on this.

Would depend on your company policies but IRS rules would say that you can only expense mileage in excess of your normal commute (typically home to office mileage). So if your office is 65 miles away, IRS says there is nothing to expense.

OP works from home, not the airport. So full miles are an expense.

Just expense it. My previous firm gave us like $0.55 a mile. I just entered the amount of miles that would equate to a Lyft or Uber ride and called it a day.
