Tel excise tax refund

If you have an individual who has a schedule C business, can they take the standard refund on the personal return as well as the actual 8913 on the schedule C excise tax paid?

My reading of it is no. They would have to go the 8913 route.

NO - Must use actual method for BOTH personal & business phones. Result is two form 8913 must be prepared, See IRS instructions and information of irs.gov regarding this subject. The standard amount of refund covers ALL phones of the taxpayer and those claimed on the return Larry McClellan Attorney
