Beginning tomorrow, July 1, the Internal Revenue Service has mercifully deigned to grant that the mileage deduction for tax purposes will be going up from $ .505/mile to $ .585/mile.
I know more than one organist (present company included) for whom April 15 is usually a rather unpleasant day due to all the wedding fees that add up over the year. Yes, even wee little organists--and their wee little incomes--get hit with the big 15% Social Security Tax. So, take every deduction you can.
I suppose this new rate has to do with the high price of gas. Of course, if they really cared, they'd let us take the deduction in Euros:-)
