Phlebotomists tax write-offs

Varies

What Can Phlebotomists Write Off?

Short answer: Mobile 1099 phlebotomists deduct needles and tubes, centrifuges, certification, and mileage to patients; W-2 lab staff can't.

W-2 employees can't deduct unreimbursed job expenses on a federal return through at least 2026 (the miscellaneous itemized deduction is gone); ask your employer for an accountable-plan reimbursement instead.

Records to keep: Keep receipts, 1099s or W-2s, a mileage log, and a note of the business purpose for each expense.
