​2022 Standard Mileage Rates for Business, Medical and Moving Announced  

The Internal Revenue Service issued the 2022 optional standard mileage rates used to calculate the deductible costs of operating an automobile for business, charitable, medical or moving purposes.
​
Beginning on Jan. 1, 2022, the standard mileage rates for the use of a car (also vans, pickups or panel trucks) will be:
  • 58.5 cents per mile for business miles driven, up from 56 cents for 2021
  • 18 cents per mile driven for medical or moving purposes, up from 16 cents for 2021
  • 14 cents per mile driven in service of charitable organizations
The standard mileage rate for business is based on an annual study of the fixed and variable costs of operating an automobile. The rate for medical and moving purposes is based on the variable costs, such as gas and oil. The charitable rate is set by law.

Taxpayers always have the option of calculating the actual costs of using their vehicle rather than using the standard mileage rates.

For the first time since 2011, the IRS has increased the business and medical/moving rates mid-year. Beginning on July 1, 2022, the standard mileage rates for the use of a car will be:
  • 62.5 cents per mile for business miles driven
  • 22 cents per mile for medical/moving purposes.

A taxpayer may not use the business standard mileage rate for a vehicle after claiming accelerated depreciation, including the Section 179 expense deduction, on that vehicle. Likewise, the standard rate is not available to fleet owners (more than four vehicles used simultaneously). Details on these and other special rules are in Revenue Procedure 2019-46, the instructions to Form 1040 and various online IRS publications including Publication 17, Your Federal Income Tax.

Besides the standard mileage rates, Notice 2022-03, posted on IRS.gov, also includes the basis reduction amounts for those choosing the business standard mileage rate, as well as the maximum standard automobile cost that may be used in computing an allowance under a fixed and variable rate plan.
