Are my tolls and parking costs deductible if I use the optional business mileage allowance method?

CPA Answer:

Yes. Whether you choose the actual auto expenses, including depreciation or lease payments, or use the mileage allowance method, you can still deduct the actual business tolls and parking expense costs. You should maintain a record of the expenses and keep your receipts to verify the deduction.
