Ahh, Jamaica! There you are on that beautiful island for nine sun-drenched days.
You’re there to work, of course, but you also want to spend time lounging on the beach with a Daiquiri in hand.
Let’s interrupt this fantasy for a moment to ask a rather mundane and practical question. (I am an accountant after all!)
“What part of this idyllic trip is deductible — and what isn’t?”
You’ll get straight answers to this important question when you read my brand new article titled Tax Tips: Critical Tax-Deduction Proof for Nine-Day Trip to Jamaica.
(Good news! That Daiquiri just might be deductible!)
Three ways our fact-filled article can help you:
- We’ll explain the importance of proper documentation. When you travel abroad on a business trip, you may deduct all the costs of sustaining life for each business day… but only if you document your trip following the rules that apply to foreign travel. Get all the details when you read the full article.
- We’ll tell you how to provide IRS-approved documentation. The most difficult part is writing down where you were and why you were there. We’ll provide you with an example of a daily journal that will serve as a useful model when you read the full article.
- We’ll explain what the IRS means by “travel days” and “standby” days. This is a distinction that you need to be aware of before you pack your bags. All will be explained when you read the full article.
