Taxes !!!
I know it's only January...but time to start thinking of it.
Since i'm probably older than many of you, i should know this. In all my years of paying taxes, i've always done the standard deduction of like $3000-$3500 or whatever it is. I never had enough to do itemized deductions. I rent. A friend keeps insisting to me that i can write off my rent. Without talking to a taxman, i don't think that you can. Unless, you use part of your home for a business. ????
Last year i did maybe 5 jobs in my garage on the side for people. Nothing big, but still a side job. Any of you know if i can claim a portion or all of my place that i rent as a tax write off. I paid $475*12=$5,700. Would be nice to claim a good chunk or all of that as a write off.
Do any of you that have full time jobs, do side jobs in your garage and write off your rent?
Could use any tax help.
Thanks.
