Paying taxes is something that each and every citizen of a country
with a decent income has to do. Most people are left worried by thinking
about the amount of money that will be siphoned out from their pockets.
Would it be a relief for you if you get to know the tricks of
claiming tax relief? I guess that is a yes. So in this article we hall
discuss about the ways in which you can claim tax relief and also how to
get the uniform tax rebate.
The tax payers are often in two minds as whether or not to pay taxes.
To encourage them to pay taxes, the US government allows certain tax
exemptions. Tax exemptions are possible under a number of conditions.
For example, claiming tax relief is possible if you travel everyday in
your own car for your work. Whether you are delivering goods to your
client or paying them a visit, you will get a certain amount of tax
exemption. To get the exact amount first you need to calculate the total
number of miles that you drove in your car. Then multiply this with the
mileage of your car and then subtract the amount provided to you by
your employer for the gas. However if you drive to your workplace in
your car you are not eligible for any such exemption.
Certain professions require the workers to wear uniforms. These
include doctors, surgeons, cops, firefighters, air hostess, cabin crew,
chefs, workers of construction companies etc. Believe it or not the
uniform that you wear everyday to your workplace might actually help you
to save quite a few bucks. You must be washing your uniforms regularly.
If you are meeting the cost of washing from your own pocket then you
are eligible to get uniform tax rebate.
But then while claiming tax relief you must keep in mind about the
major pitfalls. Just like driving to work does not make you eligible to
claim tax redemption, similarly you can apply for the uniform tax rebate
only if it is seen that the cost of washing your uniform is exceeding a
certain amount. Usually this is two percent of the gross income of the
taxpayers.
