The bankruptcy means test has many technical issues that are open to different opinions and arguments. Even judges have disagreed as to how to interpret requirements of the means test. As to employer reimbursement of mileage expenses, if you submit a report of actual business trips and mileage, then I would not count the reimbursement as income. However, if you receive a set amount every month and do not have to submit reports, then I would consider the amounts as income. (You might be able to deduct employee expenses in another way).
