Check out the Kiplinger’s guide to what items you can deduct from your tax return.

From business expenses, things you own, to charitable donations and more, there’s a lot you can deduct. For instance, did you know you can deduct gambling losses? Or 18 cents per mile for each mile you drove to your doctor’s office?

If you haven’t yet filed and want some ways to bring that tax bill down here, Kiplinger’s “taxopedia” is a great place to start. — BEN POPKEN
