You can claim mileage for volunteering when you use your personal vehicle to travel to and from a volunteer location. The IRS allows mileage deductions for volunteer work if you are driving for a qualified organization, such as a charity, and you keep accurate records of your trips. It's important to note that you can only deduct the standard mileage rate for the miles driven specifically for volunteering, not for commuting to your regular job. Always check the latest IRS guidelines for any updates or specific requirements.
When carpooling, typically only the driver of the vehicle can claim mileage reimbursement, as they are the one using their car for the trip. Passengers, including volunteers, generally cannot claim mileage for their share of the ride. It's important for volunteers to clarify the reimbursement policy with the organization to ensure they understand the rules and eligibility criteria for mileage claims.

An employer can pay any amount they want for gas mileage. The federal government allows an employee to claim a deduction for the business mileage if the employer does not reimburse the employee for the expense.
Depends on the tax rules that apply to the country you are claiming in.
If you are forced to do anything, then it is not volunteering! If they pay you to do it, then it is not volunteering!
