Made for nurses on the move

Built around the way you actually work

New city every 13 weeks, a PRN shift on the side, a stipend that's taxed one way and a paycheck that's taxed another. We're building something calm and clear for all of it.

Quick between shifts

Adding a mileage trip or an expense takes a couple of taps, even at the end of a twelve-hour day. Repeat your usual drive with one tap.

W-2, 1099, or both

Agency contracts, PRN, per-diem, or your own 1099 work: keep each income stream labeled so the right rules apply to each one.

Your tax home, in view

Stipends and travel deductions depend on having a tax home. A simple tracker shows where you stand on the IRS three-factor test.

What's inside

Everything in one gentle, organized place

The records, the math, and the plain-language explanations travel nurses usually juggle across notes apps, spreadsheets, and shoeboxes.

Two-tap mileage

Log a drive in seconds and repeat your last trip with one tap. Mileage rates come from one updatable rules file.

Receipt photos

Snap a receipt as you log an expense. Location data is stripped from the photo before it's stored.

Tax-home tracker

See the three-factor test at a glance, plus contract-length reminders tied to the one-year rule.

Contract comparison

Put two offers side by side and see how tax-free stipends and taxable hourly pay stack up, with assumptions shown.

W-2 vs 1099 estimates

Rough self-employment tax and QBI estimates for your 1099 work, each clearly labeled as an estimate.

Quarterly reminders

Gentle nudges before estimated-payment due dates, with a plain explanation of the safe-harbor idea.

Plain-language library

Short rule cards on tax homes, GSA per diem, stipends, mileage, and retirement options, with links to IRS and GSA sources.

Year-end CPA summary

A clean, printable summary and CSV export of your miles, expenses, income, and stipends, ready to hand to your preparer.

Honest by design

Clear numbers, with the "why" right next to them

Tax rules for travel nurses are confusing. We'd rather show you how a number was reached than hand you a big promise.

  • Every estimate is labeled. You'll see the assumptions behind it, like filing status and rates used.
  • Sources you can check. Rule cards link straight to IRS and GSA pages.
  • Built to work with your CPA or EA. It's an organizer and calculator, not a replacement for professional advice.

Questions

Good questions, honest answers

What is Traveling Nurse Mate?

A private, phone-first app for logging miles, expenses, income, and stipends, tracking your tax home, comparing contract offers, and producing a year-end summary for your tax preparer. It's in development now. Early access is opening soon.

Is this tax advice?

No. Traveling Nurse Mate offers research and organizing tools. Calculations are estimates with their assumptions shown, and the rule library links to official IRS and GSA sources. Please confirm with a CPA or enrolled agent (EA) before filing.

Is my data private?

Yes, privacy is a core design goal. No ads, no selling data, and location data is removed from receipt photos. This website itself has no cookies or analytics. If you join early access, we save your name and email only to tell you when it opens. If you email us, your message goes to our support inbox and is used only to reply to you.

Who is it for?

Travel nurses on W-2 agency contracts, nurses picking up PRN or per-diem shifts, and nurses with 1099 side work. If your income comes from more than one place, or your address changes every few months, it's for you.

When can I use it?

We're not launched yet. Join early access and we'll email you when there's something to try. No spam.
