What you need to know about claiming mileage on your taxes.
Mileage is our bread and butter, but it’s just one piece of the puzzle for drivers and admins — which is why our latest updates are all about efficiency. Here are some ways we improved our offerings so you can fly through your mileage tasks (and in some cases, be able to forget about them completely).
If you or your team drive for work, you know that tracking mileage involves a gazillion small admin tasks that inevitably eat into your time. It’s not as simple as tracking a drive. You need to note all the details, verify the drive was indeed for work, and then make sure all the key players, from manager to accountant, have the right mileage records. Here at MileIQ, we worked hard to create a comprehensive toolkit for every leg of the journey — so tracking mileage becomes as simple as possible.
