Can I deduct for public or alternitive transportation?

Coleen Carignan: If you are taking the transportation to medical appointments, you could deduct them if you itemize, and if your medical expenses total over 7.5% of your income. Otherwise, no.

Ivan Velazquez: It would depend on what you are traveling for. Business (not W-2 work), Medical and Charity work would be deductible if you itemize. Otherwise NO.

Dick Ovdenk: No. Commuting to work is not deductible.
