    Currently, for reservists who travel more than 100 miles from home to report for duty the allowable expenses for the deduction are limited to the federal per diem rate for lodging, meals, and incidental expenses, and the standard mileage rate for car expenses, plus any parking fees, ferry fees and tolls.  Airfare and car rental expenses along with uniform expense and postage are not currently deductible.
