Frequently Asked Questions

What is the current IRS per diem rate for drivers?

Is per diem legal and IRS-approved?

Yes. When handled correctly through payroll, per diem is 100 % legal and approved by the IRS. This guide walks you through how to do it the right way.

How can offering per diem benefit our company financially?

Offering per diem pay can reduce your company’s payroll tax liability because the non-taxable portion of the pay isn’t subject to employer-paid taxes like FICA and FUTA. Over time, this can lead to significant savings while increasing driver take-home pay.
