I work as an independent contractor (school counselor in a middle school). Do these qualify as itemized deductions: laptop, gas, class supplies

You may  be able to deduct your laptop or some potion thereof depending on the amount of personal use, if any.

Vehicle expenses from home to your main location of employment and back home are not deductible.

The supplies you use to conduct your job would be deductible.

To file as an independent contractor, you would need to upgrade to TurboTax Deluxe; if you deduct business expenses, you will need to upgrade to TurboTax Self Employed
