Personal care assistants tax write-offs

Varies

What Can Personal care assistants Write Off?

Short answer: Employees can't deduct; self-employed PCAs deduct gloves and supplies, CPR certification, and mileage between clients.

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.
