Business Use of Automobile Worksheet

Documentation must be kept to prove business use of vehicles.
- If you used your automobile for active conduct of your business, you can claim expenses for business use of your vehicle. You must have proof of business use in the form of a mileage log or a written calendar unless you can show your vehicle was 100% business use.
- You may be eligible to claim a standard mileage rate or claim actual operational expenses for your vehicle. In either case, you must maintain written records to support your deduction.
