You cannot deduct hotels, meals, or mileage. These are considered personal expenses. Your tax home is in Orlando. The fact that you live in Georgia is a personal decision. You could move to Orlando and then you would no longer have these duplicate expenses.

I agree with IntlTax's interpretation.

However, if you maintain a home in Georgia, it is likely that Georgia will ALSO tax your income. The fact that you earned it in Florida is irrelevent.
