Is postage a valid business expense if part of it is personal?

I submitted my personal taxes by mail and I am wondering if the postage is a valid business expense. I have 2 jobs and my tax return includes both self employment income and also regular employee income? If it is a valid business expense do I deduct all of the postage or do I only deduct half since my tax return is part personal and part business?

You'd be just fine in deducting that postage as a business expense in its entirety. It can't be a substantial amount and was a necessary expense in filing your business tax return.
