Underwriters may experience a large salary bump if they progress into a role such as Manager of Underwriting. The latter position pays an average of $88K annually. A Senior Underwriter or a Mortgage Loan Underwriter is a typical transition from an Underwriter role.
As long as the vehicle is used for business purposes, you may deduct the cost of the actual gasoline used or you may deduct mileage you put on the vehicle. Deducting the actual cost of the gasoline you use is called the actual expense method of deduction.
You can claim business mileage deductions if you run a business or work as an independent contractor. Before calculating your business mileage, determine your principal place of business. This is the place from which you work most of the time. If you have an office, then your principal place of business is your office. If you work from home, then your principal place of business is your home. The IRS only allows you to claim mileage deductions on the portion of the mileage you use for business.
