Did You Know Travel Expenses to Bariatric Center Tax Deductible
My accountant informed me today that because I live almost 2 hours from Guelph where I had all my clinic appts, pre op stuff plus surgery, I can claim mileage, parking, meals etc for each trip I have made there. Good to know. Realize I am posting this too late for those who have already filed but just found out myself.
Live near Bayfield. Referral June 2011 to Windsor Bariatric Referral Center. July asked to be transferred to Guelph as closer but file got lost.. Orientation Nov 2011, Guelph. Nurse,Nut and SW X3 mid 2012. Surgeon Dec 2012. VGS Surgery Feb 26 2013 Dr Jules Guelph
Good to know, I am in Barrie and about 80km away, I will try to submit these, why not?
Thanks for sharing

Yes also any hotel stay and if u get a receipt for your opti, like I did, because its medically issued stuff, its deductible too. I am gonna claim my hotel and opti. Even the hotel I had to have for the sleep study, my hubby had to stay in the hotel as I was released at 5 a.m. I live 2 hrs from the sleep study clinic, hospital and doc, LOL
