Hello everyone

I have a truck driver client that works for a company that issues him a 1099-nec each year. This client

uses the companies truck and is not reimbursed for fuel or any other expenses.

What expenses can I deduct?

Please help. Thank you in advance

B, Green

Thank you for your response

Can I write off his mileage the company does not reimburse him for mileage.

He pays for everything even though it is not his truck.

The clients employer better hope that they do not get audited because the way I see it this is a true employer employee relationship here and they will be found guilty of payroll tax avoidance and big fines and penalty will be handed out to them.
