On finding the commuting purposes and the tax law for given commuter expenses!

We should not state different things in relation to commuting unless we have the laws and the rules clear for us. And we cannot get all kinds of costs as commuter expenses, so there are some rules regulating on how this really is.

All benefits that you have from place to place and from time to time are taxpayers. Therefore, if you are living and working at different places, you should pay tax for the benefits that you have with the housing, but you should not pay any benefits when being visiting your parents house.

If you are living outside your home, you have requirement for deduction for travel expenses between you home and the housing where you are working. Commuting means add to list share. A commute is a journey you take from home to work and back again. Your commute is your trip to work, and the verb commute describes making that trip — like your preference to commute by public bus. And there are rules in different countries about how much you can get in deduction by being traveling from your home and the commuter housing by doing your work from time to time. But the benefits you have when having the commuter housing outside your home, you should pay tax on in accordance with the national rules where you are operating.

There is also a distinction between costs and expenses in the tax law, but these differences are often too small to be given further considerations. Commuting means travel back and forth regularly. What are commuting expenses? Commuting expenses are costs that are incurred as a result of the taxpayer's regular means of getting back and forth to his or her place of employment. Commuting expenses can include car expenses, biking expenses, and public transportation costs.

If you spend the night away from your home due to your work, you may have the right to deductions for the extra expenses you’ve had for board, lodging and home visits. It is a condition that it is an additional expense and that it is not covered by your employer.

Unfortunately, commuting costs are not tax deductible. Commuting expenses incurred between your home and your main place of work, no matter how far are not an allowable deduction. Costs of driving a car from home to work and back again are personal commuting expenses. But we should follow the rules and the standards that are given commuting costs in the tax law in question. And all benefits should be paid for, and the employer should also pay duties on it. The first and most important thing to know about commuting expenses is that they are never deductible. Commuting is understood by the tax code to be a cost of doing business that affects both business owners and employees. Getting from your home to your work and back—even if that trip is one hundred miles or more each way—is commuting, not business travels. Business travels are in principle deductible, and that is travelling you have in relation to your work, and that has nothing to do with private purposes and private visits.

So, what are the problems with being working at the parliament in any country? You should pay for the benefit of having the commuter housing the places where it is, and normally you cannot make any deduction about visiting to your private housing, since these expenses are private ones. But check with the organizations, if you are in doubt, and do not do things that you have not the basis for in the national rules and laws where you are included!

And if you in addition have one rental housing or more than one rental housings, you should pay tax for the profit of these things, and that is paying tax in accordance with a capital income!
