Question

I received separate W-2 for my PCS move in 2019. Do I have to claim moving expense deduction if I already entered this W-2 in income section?

If I manually enter the moving expenses under deduction, what part in W-2 would be employer reimbursement - Box 1 Wages OR Box 12 with code P?

Report the W-2 as shown on the document. If it is reported in box 1, then you will separately deduct the moving expenses on your taxes with Form 3903. If it is shown in box 12  of your W-2 with code P, then the reimbursement was not included in income and you cannot deduct the expenses.
