Lol, either way, is there any point for me to keep all my train tickets for getting me to school?  I've heard of people being able to use them, but how do I know if I could be in the same category?

Also, if it is, it will be a very very small amount. Tax returns can be a joke unless you're rolling in it.

Uh oh! There's a monster in my bed.
We french kissed on a subway train,
He tore my clothes right off. He ate my heart and then he ate my brain.

I don't know if they are tax deductible for school. I know some public transport is for those going to work.

Haha, it's better than nothing!  Yeah, I've been looking around, and I get alot of things about it being when you have two jobs or something, but I walk for both of my jobs... and the train isn't involved.

Lol, even a little bit... I suppose it's worth a try and seeing if I can get anything from it, lol.

When in doubt: save your receipts and simply ask your accountant if it would be useful to continue saving and calculating these deductions in the future. Better to save them and not use it as a deduction than to not save it and find out that you could have used it.

So when you're happy (Hurray!), or sad (Aw!),
Or frightened (Eeek!), or mad (Rats!)
An interjection starts a sentence right.

It may be. I know of many students who deduct a portion of their gas/car expenses. Generally though, you probably won't have to keep ALL of your train tickets, but there's no harm in doing so so that you get a more accurate deduction amount (although, generally, most people do not benefit from doing an itemized deduction for their taxes [meaning, calculating and adding up all of the things they spent money on that they can take off of taxes], so the majority of people just end up using the basic deduction).

Yeah, that's why I'm holding on to it.  My train expenses are very standard, so even without receipts and the like is very clear what the amounts would be anyway.  But I figure if I hold on to it, it will save some hassle in the long run :)
