Specialized Tax Filing Support Built for Life on the Road
Long hours, unpredictable routes, and expenses that pile up fast—being a truck driver comes with tax situations that many general accountants simply aren't equipped to handle.
At Pocket tax, we work with owner-operators, company drivers, and independent contractors to ensure every eligible deduction is claimed and every return is filed accurately and on time.
Whether you're leased to a carrier, running your own authority, or driving as a T4 employee, our team understands the trucking industry and knows where valuable tax savings can be found.
Our Truck Driver Tax Filing Services Include
We're here to help you with:
- Preparing and filing personal and self-employed tax returns
- Claiming meal and travel deductions for long-haul drivers
- Tracking fuel, maintenance, insurance, and operating expenses
- Reporting income for owner-operators and independent contractors
- GST/HST registration and filing for self-employed truck drivers
We take the guesswork out of trucking taxes so you can stay focused on the road, not the paperwork.
Why Truck Drivers Need Specialized Tax Support
Trucking income and expenses aren't like a typical tax return.
- Company drivers and owner-operators have different tax rules.
- Missing deductions on fuel, repairs, and equipment can cost thousands.
- Meal and lodging claims have special CRA requirements.
- Self-employed drivers may need to register and file GST/HST.
- Late or inaccurate filing may result in CRA penalties and interest.
Working with a tax professional who understands the trucking industry means fewer mistakes, more deductions, and less stress.
Deductions & Credits We Help You Claim
Depending on your driving arrangement, we help you claim:
- Meal and shower expenses for eligible trips
