Can I deduct continuing education expenses for my RN ? I am employed full time.

[Marketstar · Accepted solution]

Yes, to be deductible, your expenses must be for education that either maintains or improves your job skills, or is required by your employer or by law to keep your salary, status or job.

To claim educational expenses, you must be employed at the time of payment

Expenses to learn a new trade or job or to qualify for a new career aren't deductible.

Yes, but if you are an employee the expense is a misc expense on Sch A.  So you have to itemize and the amount of misc expense has to be grater than 2% of AGI to deduct anything.
