Do the standard mileage deduction rules also apply on weekends?
If you travel on a weekend for work do you have to back out your normal commute when you deduct the miles? This would be travel in addition to a normal commute during the work week.
Your transportation and travel expenses are subject to the same rules whether you travel during the week or on a weekend.
If you drive to your normal place of work on a weekend, it is not deductible. If your employer sends you to a different location on the weekend, that trip is fully deductible. You would not subtract your commuting miles in the second case.
