As a substitute teacher, I work for different districts in the county. I must travel to many different schools for jobs. Can I claim travel expenses?

Yes, you may claim travel expenses from one job location to another as Job-Related Employee Expenses.

Travel between your home and any job location is considered commuting, and that mileage is not deductible.

To find this section in TurboTax, open your return, then go to My Account >> Tools >> Topic Search. Type in "job expenses, employee", then click the topic in the list and GO to go directly to the start of this section. Follow the prompts to enter your job-related expenses.

Employee job-related expenses are considered Miscellaneous Expenses; total Miscellaneous Expenses must exceed 2 percent of your adjusted gross income (AGI) in order to be included on your tax return.

TurboTax will help you determine if your expenses can be reported and if your total Miscellaneous Expenses meet the threshold to be deductible.
