Maintaining an accurate kilometer log is very important for those taxpayers who are able to claim automotive expense deductions. Without such a log, otherwise legitimate expenses can be disallowed.

Remember that driving to and from home to your work or place of business is not considered to be allowable travel. On the other hand, driving from your home to a customer, patient or client office is legitimate, so arranging your schedule to include one of these stops on the way to or from work, can significantly increase the eligible portion of automotive expenses. Your kilometer log will be invaluable in proving that you have done this.

Please contact your accountant at Harvey, Lister & Webb Incorporated to discuss the possibilities.
