'12 Receipts

[sharlan]

I just came across a whole stack of receipts that I forgot to list for last year's taxes.

Can I use them this year or should I just put them with last year's and forget about them? There's really not enough to bother with filing an amendment.

You can't claim these on your 2013 taxes. For every $10 of a business receipt you have for 2012 this will reduce your taxes by about $3-$4, so it may be worthwhile to amend. Tom
