Documentation tips

-   Fuel purchased for business vehicle use is fully deductible — keep a mileage log with date, destination, and business purpose to support the business-use percentage.
-   Food and beverage purchases made inside Circle K (e.g., coffee, snacks for employees on the road) are subject to the 50% meal deduction limit under IRC §274.
-   Use the Circle K Pro fleet card to generate per-transaction fuel reports, which serve as IRS-compliant substantiation for fuel expenses.
-   If employees use Circle K for both fuel and snacks on the same transaction, ask for separate receipts or itemized receipts to properly split deductible categories.
-   Do not deduct fuel used for personal commuting — only miles driven for legitimate business purposes qualify.
