My employer provides cell-phones with unlimited plans, so they don't care how much we use for personal calls.
Thanks for write-up. :thumbup: :tgif:

A great weekend to all. I'll be heading to Kelly's Island for the next week, so I'll catch everyone when and if I can.

It's my pleasure and I'm glad people enjoy it as it does take quite a bit of time. Have a great time with Kelly at her island. :D

Thanks LeMans!

Your situation is exactly what the IRS would like to tax. While your employer doesn't mind how many personal calls you make, if they provide and pay for that cellphone you should be taxed to the extent that you use it for personal calls. It's F'd up but that's the IRS for you. :tsk: Your employer should be requiring compliance with the substantiation requirements. I believe that virtually all businesses and many government agencies are out of compliance. Again, :bsflag: !

PNG/K,
What a good read! Your links are worth raising the price of
admission! :thumbup:

Happy and Safe Independence Day/week to all the United States Gang
and Happy Canada Day to our GWN neighbors!

Here's the phone I grew up with: we had only one in our house, with a "party line"
that required waiting your turn, lol! Ah, the modern world.

Kev, as always I enjoy reading your Friday Files! Happy Canada Day & Happy 4th of July to you! I think you should leave your job when you start taxing you for using the bathroom for personal use! :rofl:

To tax personal calls they will have to hire at least 2 guys to go through 3000 pages+ phone bills and go line by line and they will be calling users if they have question on particular call, if it is business or personal. And if the day they tax me I will not use their cell phone for personal calls. Major BS. IRS is crazy.
