Can I deduct strip club expenses on tax return ?

Answer 1

hahahahahaha

Answer 2

If you paid for the dental expenses in 2008, then they cannot be claimed on your 2009 return. If you paid for them in 2009, then they can be claimed on your 2009 return. You may only claim the exemption for the year in which you paid for the services. If you had dental expenses for 2008, you did not claim them, and you itemized deductions, you can amend your 2008 return using Form 1040X. You will have until April 15, 2012 to file your amendment and get any additional refund to which you are entitled.

Answer 3

Arguably as an entertainment deduction. The IRS watches those very closely. There MUST be a business link to the entertainment expense deduction and you must document what that was, i.e. what business was discussed, in case it's audited.

Answer 4

Yes. I have several clients who are strip club dancers. You can offset income from dancing with deductions for items that are normal and customary for that profession. They tell me how much income they have to declare and pay taxes on, and I put it on a Schedule C, Self-Employment Income. I also deduct their expenses for items not suitable for wear on the street such as theatrical makeup, costumes, special shoes, fees paid to bartenders, d.j.'s, "House Moms", late fees a/k/a "no show" fees paid to the clubs when they are late or don't show for work, stage props, etc. If they are "floaters" (i.e. travel a circuit), I also deduct their travel expenses, child care when they are out of town, etc. I insist the ones I do, pay their taxes, Social Security, & Medi-Care (known as the Self Employment Tax). If they don't want to do that I ask them to go to someone else. Keep in mind we are only using their legitimate expenses to offset some of the income they declare.

Answer 5

Possibly as an entertainment expense. Just keep very detailed records on what clients you were "entertaining", what business connection there was with the expense. But if you do get audited, don't be surprised to have some or all of the expensse disallowed.

Answer 6

Only if you claim the income. In addition to the various expenses for shoes, outfits, make-up you can also deduct the cost of plastic surgery. (There is a court case on this believe it or not). I assume you're a dancer.

Answer 7

Only if you can prove to the IRS that it was necessary to conduct business at a strip club in the event that you are audited.

Answer 8

yeah deduct them along with all your lap dances you received while discussing business.

Answer 9

Probably not. It's an old trick that the IRS watches for.

Answer 10

Did the girls give you any receipts??
