Standard mileage only, and only for business miles. Commuting does not count. Rates can change within a year. Use each trip date's rate and separately total periods; do not apply the second-half 2026 rate to a full year. Eligibility and documentation matter; confirm current IRS rules or ask your tax professional.
What this assumed
- The editable default is 76 cents for July through December 2026. Use 72.5 cents for January through June 2026 and 70 cents for 2025; total each period separately and verify the IRS table.
- The standard mileage method and the actual expense method are different elections. This models the standard rate only.

Not tax advice
Tax rules change and vary by state, county and situation. This tool does not know your filing status, deductions or local rates. Confirm anything you plan to file with a tax professional or the current official guidance.
