According to Abba: The Official Photo Book, published to mark 40 years since they won Eurovision with Waterloo, the band’s style was influenced in part by laws that allowed the cost of outfits to be deducted against tax – so long as the costumes were so outrageous they could not possibly be worn on the street.
We have the same tax law in America. Can’t deduct clothing that you could wear for non work.
You’ll never believe this one crazy Swedish law that most modern tax codes also have!
My aspie ass laughs at the squares in the tax office and their droll perspective on casual wear!
LOL wut?! Quote me chapter and verse please, actual law, case law or tax code.
Y’all really believe anything anyone says as long as it conforms to your preexisting beliefs, don’t ya? Dunno, sounds like a rather conservative mindset to me.
Uniforms are tax deductible… The point of it being a uniform is that you distinctly wear it for work purposes. This is well known. Not sure why you’re acting like a twat about it. https://turbotax.intuit.com/tax-tips/jobs-and-career/how-to-use-work-clothes-as-a-tax-deduction/L59P1ocW1
This article talks about how it’s ambiguous though and provides examples of things that are typically not normal clothing such as overalls and bibs not being deductible.
It’s really not as clear cut as ‘uniform’ and it really boils down to a case by case basis except in the most obvious of cases.
That’s moving the goal posts and completely irrelevant; of course it’s case-by-case when it comes to what constitutes a ‘uniform’, or else no clothes would be considered non-deductible as anything could be a part of a uniform.
