Tax tips for todays travelling businessman This is the third in a series of articles about preparing federal income tax returns. The articles are written by H & R Block Canada, Inc., Canada's largest tax ser- vice. Legitimate expense deductions on income tax returns are often overlooked or ignored by travelling businessman and outside salesmen (those who do their selling away from their employer's place of business). There are two reasons for t!is. First, the businessman is just not aware of all the ex penses he may legally claim and, second, many just don't bother to keep adequate records to sub- stantiate claims. The result may . be an overpayment of income taxes - year after year - which can add up to a sizeable sum of money. The Dpeartment of National Revenue will not allow a business expense to be deducted unless it can be substantiated by some record or receipt. A travelling salesman should, therefore, always keep a diary showing the dates of trips, where he went, whom he saw, and the purpose. The information establishes that the expenses were in- curred for valid business reasons. Some of the most com- monly overlooked business expenses are for parking meters, telephone calls, local transportation while travelling, and membership dues in professional clubs and organizations.
