Mileage that stays out of taxable wages

Home care and field teams drive between clients all day. Platforms such as Tendcare and Fieldcrew can now send trips with their miles, and Payrun reimburses them at the rate per mile the employer sets for the year. Up to the IRS standard mileage rate, the reimbursement stays out of taxable wages; anything above it is taxed and shown on its own line.

Travel time between clients is not the same thing as mileage. When the employer’s settings say so, it is paid as hours worked, and it counts toward overtime.
