Well if all he has is 1000 in milage you are going to want to stick to your standard deduction... You can only get around 34cents a mile. And when you are claiming unreinbursed employee expences you only get 2% of auctual expences and that figure will go over to the schedule A.. So there is no way that you can come above and beyone the standard deduction the irs is already giving you. So im sure you will to stick to your standard deduction. You can force the auctual expences but it will hurt you more then help you...
But if you have other expences to go on the Schedule A like mortgage intrest and property taxes, contributions hmm let me think lol ( been almost a year ), State withholding on your W2s.
there again that has to come above and beyond your standard deduction. and every year the Irs increases that. Ohhh and medical expences paid out of pocket but there again you only get a percentage.
im sure i have totaly coinfused you... Im sorry lol but hopefully it helped
