Clothes for software developers (freelance)

$50-$1,000

Can Software Developers Write Off Clothes?

Short answer: Usually no: everyday clothes aren't deductible for software developers (freelance), even if you only wear them for work.

Uniforms, protective gear, and costumes that aren't suitable for street wear are deductible.

Records to keep: Keep receipts, 1099s and platform tax summaries, a mileage log, and a note of the business purpose.
