Question

On the mileage reimbursement information am I supposed to post all the mileage including what I get paid for or just what I don’t get paid for?

I'm not sure what area you are entering mileage for, but generally you enter your total mileage and then the amount of your reimbursement.  I would need more information about what mileage you are entering to help you beyond this.

I have a similar question.  For the most part, I enter the mileage I used for work as a deduction.  So I have a running log and then can show how many miles I drove for work.  One entity I worked for as an independent contractor reimbursed me for mileage I drove on my days I worked for them. So I was reimbursed $444 for my time with them for mileage (which was added onto my 1099).  Do I include that mileage I drove in my running log of miles that I report in deductions, or not?!

Yes, you can deduct the mileage that you incurred against the 1099-MISC income.  So at the end of the day, you are really not paying taxes on the reimbursement.
