I'm an professional musician and would like to know what other people do as
far as deductions. I have receipts of almost all of my expenses from last
year i.e. reeds, music, clarinet work, housing while on the road, audition
expenses etc. My question is is there any AFM pamphlet or web site that
has helpful information on how to claim these work related expenses?
Exactly what can you claim? What do other professionals do? If you start
adding up my work costs it comes out to a couple of thousand per year for
me to work.
