I know you can write off professional publications such as magazines which are not required, but the haircut and shaving supplies are a no. I emailed the IRS a couple years ago and they said haircuts and shaving supplies are not deductable as a work related expense because you would do it anyways. I disagree, but that is what they said. Also a no was a portion of my cable bill so I could see the weather before I went to work. However, they did say a portion of my cell phone and internet access were deductable.[/QU
What portion of the cell phone bill?
Company says I must have one. Can I deduct the phones cost (big bucks for the iphone)?
