If your uniform is something that you normally can't wear outside work the purchase and cleaning could be business expenses.  Anything that you buy to directly support your job should be deductible.  Books on food service.  Anything to buy to track your earnings and report them should be deductible.\n\nActual cost of parking where you work.

Ask a public tax advisor. Or find a website for your country using the searchwords "payroll" +"tax deductions". This might bring you to a website that offers free calculation of your salary, including tax and social security deductions. If all this doesn't help, the best option might be to simply ask the person who is responsible for your payroll how they calculate the tax deduction.

what's the money being deducted for

Probably clothing...you can earn commission, so you could earn your base wage plus what you sell. With food, you will get dirty and have to sometimes stay over late and deal with crazy customers.  It's a very weird thing to work with food.  I hated it and I'm now 23.

None. I'm a waitress and every restaurant gets the morons that don't know how to tip properly.

paper route; babysit; lawn care or gardening;  there is a book titled "Extra Cash for Kids" which may help you figure out what you can do.   I"m glad you're looking to earn money and not wanting handouts!

Well, since she doesn't use her breasts just for business, then that would be a big fat NO. Unless it's something that you use solely for your business,9 times out of 10 you cannot write that off. Uniforms used exclusively for work and nowhere else, makeup used exclusively for work, etc would be tax deductable. I don't think you could even use depreciation on that. Hope this helps.

Send in your receipts. They also usually have a form to fill out.

I'd try wal-mart if your waitress-friend doesn't know.  Of course, ebay might have it.

unless u have income as writer and an artist, you can not deduct any expenses. If you had a reasonable amount of income you could do a schedule C (business income  or loss). Otherwise the IRS will consider it a hobby.\n In terms of any other deductions, unless they exceed the standard deduction , it is not worth it. See the site below for more info on deductions

One question per customer....lol\n\nForce yourself to save by taking money out of your account or check automatically.  Your 401k (if you have one) can accomplish that. So can automatic deductions for mutual funds (say $50 a month).\nTake the money out first and you'll not be able to spend it!!!
