What is a Flight Crewmember's Tax Home

What is a tax home?

A tax home is the start and end point for each of your trips. It has a very strict definition with the IRS in IRS Publication 463. The IRS definition of you tax home is as follows:

Generally, your tax home is your regular place of business or post of duty, regardless of where you maintain your family home. It includes the entire city or general area in which your business or work is located.

For flight crewmembers, your tax home is generally your domicile, even if you commute. The only time this might not apply would be in the case of temporary assignments.

Everything seems to have worked okay. It almost seems too good to be true! I came out with $8,200 or so and per diem reimbursed of about $5,800, so I guess the difference is $2,400. That should save me about $450 or $500. Gotta love that!
