As a general rule, a taxpayer must maintain adequate records or other sufficient evidence to substantiate expenses claimed. Additional evidence is required for some expenditures or use, such as, travel, entertainment, gifts, and auto expenses.
You should keep adequate records to prove your expenses or have sufficient evidence that will support your own statement. You generally must have documentary evidence, such as receipts, canceled checks, or bills, to support your expenses.
