Have the rules on professional dues been updated? When I go to job-related expenses to enter my professional dues in TurboTax, it says that it is only available to armed force reservists, qualified performing artists, fee-basis state or local government official, or disabled with impairment-related expenses.

Yes, the rules on claiming employee expenses has been updated due to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) that was passed in 2017. It affects tax years 2018 through 2025.

You can still enter your employee expenses as part of Form 2106 because certain states did not conform to the changes due to the TCJA and they may still allow the deduction on your state return.
