Question from line 12: Vehicle operation expense: Using the IRS Local Standards and the number of vehicles for which you claim the operating expenses, fill in the Operating Costs that apply for your Census region or metropolitan statistical area.

This calculation is done automatically using various pieces of data:

  1. Number of vehicles that can be claimed

  2. Client Profile > Filing Information > Version of legal data applied to case (this will default to the most current data but you can change the version here)

  3. IRS Standards - see #4b

If your district allows you to deduct any additional vehicle expenses, you may enter that when you check the box to Add additional deduction.
