The IRS announced the 2011 standard mileage rates for taxpayers to be reimbursed for the costs of operating an automobile for business, charitable, medical or moving expenses. The rate for use of a vehicle to obtain medical care will be 19 cents per mile, which is a 2.5 cent increase from the 2010 rate.
The same increased rate will apply for use of an automobile as part of moving expenses that are deductible under Code Section 217. Parking fees and tolls related to the use of an automobile for medical or moving expense purposes, however, may be deductible as separate items.
