State tax filing

Although the Federal return no longer has this deduction for employees, you would still enter the information on the Federal return side of the program.  Do the following:

 

  1. Open your account
  2. Enter 2106 in the Search Field (magnifying glass in the upper right corner)
  3. Click Jump to 2106

This is where you enter the Unreimbursed Employee Expenses.  No deduction on the Federal return, but it will carry over to your New York return if you qualify for the deduction.

 

The information I provided earlier is what New York will look for if they question the deduction.  New York is known to be aggressive with tax law enforcement.
