Transportation
Employees - Meals Expenses
Employees
of airlines, railways, bus, trucking, or other employers whose principal
business is the transportation of passengers and/or goods and who are regularly
required to be away from the municipality in which you live using vehicles
provided by the employer, may deduct the cost of lodging and 50% of your meals
incurred while away. The deduction is reduced by any employer reimbursements. If
you do not want to track the actual meal costs, you are permitted to estimate
the costs based on CRA's policy. You may claim one meal for every 4 hours away
to a maximum of 3 meals per day.
The
following is CRA's policy on per meal expense amounts which are not receipted.
Remember, the actual deduction is based on 50% of the expense amounts.
