You can no longer deduct employee job expenses on your federal return. PA still allows a deduction.

Allowable Pennsylvania employee business expenses must be:

 1. Ordinary, customary, and accepted in the industry or occupation;

 2. Actually paid while performing the duties of the employment;

 3. Reasonable in amount and not excessive;

 4. Necessary to enable the proper performance of the duties of the employment; and

 5. Directly related to performing the duties of the occupation or employment.

PA-40 Schedule UE is used to report unreimbursed employee business expenses incurred in the performance of the duties of the taxpayer’s job or profession.
