(Cases Filed Between October 1, 2008, and March 14, 2009, Inclusive)

 

For Use with Allowable Transportation Expenses Table
The Operating Costs and Public Transportation Costs sections of the Transportation Standards are provided by Census Region and Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA). The following table lists the states that comprise each Census Region. Once the taxpayer's Census Region has been ascertained, to determine if an MSA standard is applicable, use the definitions below to see if the taxpayer lives within an MSA (MSAs are defined by county and city, where applicable). If the taxpayer does not reside in an MSA, use the regional standard.

PLEASE NOTE:  With the IRS data updated effective March 17, 2008, some MSA’s either changed or were eliminated.
