2025 out of pocket work expenses as a w-2 employee
I'm a W-2 employee and one of my vehicles is used primarily for work. I was happy to see that for my 2025 taxes, it appears that I can input work expenses such as meals, gas, oil, maintenance.
Am I understanding this correctly? I though in past years that w-2 could not deduct work expenses that were out of pocket.
If this is a valid deduction for me as a w-2 employee, how would I identify maintennce, gas, and oil expenses for 2025? All of these would have been out of pocket.
Thanks!
