Get your taxes done using TurboTax

@premalbhatt247 If you are a W-2 employee you do not have "business expenses" to enter on a federal tax return.

 

 

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.

If your spouse is a freelancer, then it sounds like she will receive a 1099NEC in January--not a 1098.   You will need Self-Employed online software for her income.   Your own W-2 income and homeownership data can be entered using that software as well.
