If you itemize your tax deductions on your tax return, you may be able to deduct certain miscellaneous expenses.
Here’s what the IRS says:
You can deduct most miscellaneous expenses only if they exceed two percent of your adjusted gross income. These include expenses such as:
Unreimbursed employee expenses.
Expenses related to searching for a new job in the same profession.
Certain work clothes and uniforms.
Tools needed for your job.
Work-related travel and transportation.
To find out more about deduction rules, speak with your tax professional or review IRS Publication 529, “Miscellaneous Deductions” at IRS.gov.
