Katrina expense

You might check on mileage as a charitable contribution to help with Katrina relief.

[JON]

The following

Airline trips - twice
Supplies for camping-left there 656.92
Car rental-first trip 418.23 second 284.67-used for collecting animals rented in Mississippi and LA
Supplies for "Best of Friends Animal Rescue" total about another $250

"Best of Friends" 501(c) (3) wanted them to help the Minnesota branch-they did, but not until 2006.

4-17 Of Ttb

Deduct all unless there is a significant element of personal pleasure, recreation, or vacation in the travel. Travel, meals lodging take it all....................

Just look in the TTB- the new act gave some better mileage deduction.
