JONESBORO, Ga. - It's a new and expensive way to recruit and retain detention officers, and two metro Atlanta sheriffs are doing it.
Both the DeKalb and Clayton County sheriffs spent millions of dollars on fleets of electric vehicles. Not to move prisoners or search for criminals, but as a job perk, so employees can commute to and from work.

Do these employees have to claim the use of the vehicles as income?
@jonhenke3241
@jonhenke3241 28 дней назад
Yes. Using a work vehicle for personal use is seen as a fringe benefit or a form of compensation provided by your employer. The value of this benefit is added to your taxable income for the year. The taxable value of the personal use of a company vehicle can be calculated in various ways, such as using the IRS mileage rate for personal vehicle use or a percentage of the vehicle's fair market value. In this case I would suggest using the IRS mileage rate.
@tyrehester5550
@tyrehester5550 28 дней назад
Yes and if you don’t have a mileage log the IRS assumes 100% personal. It sounds like it is all personal miles and it is the employees who have to pay the tax. 😮

I drove GOV vehicles for 18 years in the Navy. You had to drive your POV to the work location and then pick up the GOV for your daily work. When it was time to go home you had to return the GOV vehicle to the work location and pick up your POV to go home. Here in the Houston area is a joke with police vehicles. You see Police vehicles parked at their homes every day for officers who work sometimes 2 jurisdictions away from their home. The rest of the population has to pay for gas and told roads to go to work everyday. We as tax payers have to pay for their gas, more frequent maintenance and faster depreciation on this vehicles. There’s zero accountability for misused of state property. We had to justify domicile of duty for a vehicle for each day we needed to take the vehicle home. If you had a place to be that would required to pass that place for more than 30 miles to pickup the GOV vehicle and then drive back to the location you already were. Other than that, get your POV like everyone else.
