Get your taxes done using TurboTax

95% of people will take the standard deduction. You are used to claiming tools and itemizing deductions.  That is a thing of the past for federal; but, you may still be able to itemize for state. The IRS says:

 

Miscellaneous deductions

The new law suspends the deduction for job-related expenses or other miscellaneous itemized deductions that exceed 2 percent of adjusted gross income. This includes unreimbursed employee expenses such as uniforms, union dues and the deduction for business-related meals, entertainment and travel.
