Common questions
Can I deduct expenses on the 8% rate?
No. The 8% option is computed on gross receipts, so expenses do not reduce your tax. Deductions only matter on graduated rates.
What do I need to claim an expense?
It must be ordinary, necessary and directly related to your work, and backed by a valid invoice or receipt in your name or TIN.
