Don't pick up hookers at a Taco Bell.

Dude, you're playing with fire doing stuff like that. It's very dangerous. Don't you know you can catch some nasty stuff by eating Taco Bell?

That would be fine with me...I just want to deduct the cost of my hotel when I come in the night before, as well as during initial training. If my Tax Home is ATL, I don't think I can do that.

It seems if there is any justification folks claim Florida to avoid State income tax, and then there is TSquare has also figured out how to crack that nut.
So I knew of a corporate pilot who told the state of Florida that the airplane was based in Georgia, so the boss isn't going to pay FL taxes even though the LLC was FL based.

Then he told Georgia, the LLC is FL based so they won't pay taxes in Georgia.

He didn't run this by the boss, thought he was doing him a favor. The boss hired a company to rectify the situation and pay the taxes to Georgia where the airplane was based. The boss knew better.

I'm not an expert and tend to be moderately conservative with tax stuff, but you should be very careful with deducting commuting expenses. Consult a professional. And not the kind you will find outside Taco Bell in downtown Atlanta.

If the professionals outside a Taco Bell in downtown Atlanta are not good for tax advice, what are they good for?

Everyone knows you can't deduct commuting expenses because commuting is a "choice"

Thanks for the tips, guys, and I'll be sure to get some tax advice while I'm there.

They can get you a "price" on a clean, gently used DC-9 in Eastman Ga.

When you see the first tax advice professional outside of Taco Bell ask them what the hourly rate is and just explain you need to know because you don't want to get screwed over.
