I am a bookkeeper and I have a number of clients who are self-employed and own their own business.

Anyone can do the work, just know that, it is a lot of work. When you pay someone to do it, you pay them to make sure that you are within legal guidelines and to make sure that you have all the documents that you need come income tax time.

For example, anyone who wants to write off car expenses, MUST have a mileage log. This mileage log should outline each personal and business trip. Start to finish point. Km driven. Etc

Driving from home to work or work to home does not count as business mileage.

Feel free to PM if you've got more questions
