WHAT ARE REIMBURSED EXPENSES RECEIVED

Where do you see this?

Reimbursed expenses are payment you received from someone else to cover the cost of an expense you incurred. 

Reimbursed expenses, can include things like:

• If you buy items for work, like uniforms that your employer then gives you the money you spent on the item.
• If you are a volunteer, and you have expenses for travel, and the organization would reimburse you, then that would be a reimbursed expense.
• If you have medical expenses that you paid out of pocket and the insurance company pays you back for them, that would be another example of reimbursed expenses. 
• If you are self-employed and a client would reimburse you for certain expenses they may be handled differently than if they were not reimbursed. 

If you are reimbursed for a deductible expense, you need to deduct the amount you received from the amount you are claiming.
