LODGING EXPENSES
An extra charge imposed by a lodging provider for an overnight stay, typically in a hotel, which can be taken as a Federal income tax deduction if the Internal Revenue Service’s standard are met. Usually a business expense, it is incurred when an individual must go away for an out-of-town business trip. Although IRS does not set a specific amount that can be reduced for lodging expenses, some criteria must be complied for the expense to be tax deductible.
