Recreational vehicle purchase for volunteer work tax deduction?
Q. I want to buy a RV and will use it 100% for volunteer activities. Can I write it off as an expense. I want to deduct the full purchase price or maybe depreciate it. If not, can I incorporate as a private non-profit and then deduct it that way?

A. The IRS is not going to be pleased about this if you deduct the full purchase of your RV. They will think you're stealing from them. Only if you come up with at least 2 percent in extra deductions out of your pocket. This will account for your supplies, the equipment that you will use, the food, mileage, or other extra-curricular activities your volunteering work needs. You are actually creating a business this way. If the business is for non-profit, then more of your monetary proceeds will go to your cause and can get written as a write off. You also have to pay tax too if you are only giving 10 percent to your volunteering cause and the rest of the 90 percent is given to you.

What are the laws regarding the placement of a car seat when traveling in a recreational vehicle (RV)?
Q. My concern is that the only seat which we can safely use is also the front seat - is this illegal?

A. Car seats in RVs is not the *best* idea for this very reason. The ideal thing to do would be to drive a car as well so that there is a safe place to put the carseat. However, if the child *must* go in the RV a front seat with no airbag is the best spot and is (I believe) legal in every state. You should never install a carseat on a seat that faces the rear or the side even if it does have a seatbelt (and of course most don't). Just keep in mind that *any* passenger in the front seat is more likely to be injured in an accident.

Q. have a travel trailer that was left on my property about 2 yrs ago need to file some kind of form at court house but do not know which form it is please help

A. Although I believe you eventually will be able to petition for ownership, I believe that there are several steps you must take before you get to that point. Below is from the Nevada state site and may help to point you in the proper direction: NRS 487.230 Removal of vehicles abandoned on property other than public lands. 1. Except as otherwise provided in NRS 487.235, any sheriff or his designee, constable, member of the Nevada Highway Patrol, officer of the Legislative Police, investigator of the Division of Compliance Enforcement of the Department, personnel of the Capitol Police Division of the Department of Public Safety, designated employees of the Manufactured Housing Division of the Department of Business and Industry,… [cont.]
