My Client was an egg donor. She rec'd a 1099-NEC. How shall I take a deduction for mileage related to her clinic trips?

That interesting; I wouldn't have though about the possibility of it being a capital asset.

As a side note, whenever I read anything from the deceased TaxAlmanac, it just reminds me of how Intuit doesn't give 💩 about tax professionals.

Yes, the most recent thread at Tax Almanac was dated 2008.

How is this a donation if she got paid to do it? The income goes on 1040 line 21 as a one-time payment. The mileage is a donation reported the normal way.

She 'donated' to a surrogate.

I don't have any clients with chicken farms. A little bit rare in these parts.

I don't come here to chitchat about old times or review secondary sources. When there is a Tax Court decision on point, I suggest you follow it.

Especially when it's written by the magnificent Judge Holmes.

The Tax Court's DAWSON website is dysfunctional, but if you want a mile-long link to a more readable copy, here it is:

Well, apparently that didn't work. Go to ustaxcourt.gov and search opinions for nichelle perez
