[QUOTE="package, post: 929377, member: 26775"] Has anyone ever gotten audited by the IRS for deducting UPS socks, boots, or gloves? It seems to me that these items are not allowed after reading the IRS publication on miscellaneous deductions. According to publication 529 in order to deduct work uniforms "[I]you must wear them as a condition of your employment, and the clothes are not suitable for everyday wear[/I]." UPS socks are not a condition of employment, and gloves and boots can be used in other places outside of the workplace. If the IRS doesn't care about these deductions, that is great for the drivers [/QUOTE]
