What Can AV technicians Write Off?
Short answer: Freelance AV techs deduct cables, mixers, tool kits, cases, travel to gigs, and certifications like CTS; W-2 crew can't federally.
Self-employed workers deduct these on Schedule C, cutting income tax and the 15.3% self-employment tax; keep receipts and a mileage log.
Records to keep: Keep receipts, 1099s or W-2s, a mileage log, and a note of the business purpose for each expense.
