Question

Can I deduct out of state job expenses (rental and food)? To clarify, this is not a personal business, and it was temporary. Please provide steps! Thank you!

Sorry---W-2 employees cannot deduct job-related expenses on a federal return.  Job-related expenses were eliminated as a federal deduction for W-2 employees by the tax laws that changed for 2018 and beyond.  Your state tax laws might be different in AL, AR, CA, HI, MN, NY or PA.
