Business vehicle mileage is a popular audit target for the IRS, especially because the documentation rules are so difficult to maintain that the IRS can often disallow most or all of your deduction if the proper documentation is missing. These days, there are several apps that can help you track your mileage automatically, and we highly recommend those. If you are looking for an Excel template that can help you document your miles, we also offer the template below.

Travel and meals expenses are also popular audit targets for the IRS, as they are some of the more commonly abused deductions, and also very difficult to documentation properly, because of the strict documentation rules in place to meet the IRS requirements. If you are looking for an Excel template that can help you document your travel and meals deductions, we offer the template below. Please note that Entertainment expenses are no longer a tax-deductible business expense.
