@5048giggle13 You mention a paycheck, so I assume your income is reported on a W-2 form. If so, you cannot deduct the business expenses on your federal return unless you are a special type of worker, such as a disabled worker or a military reservist. You used to be able to but recent tax laws eliminated that deduction.
Also, since you were reimbursed for the expenses, you can only deduct the expenses if you included the reimbursement in your income, as it should have been reported in box 1 on your W-2 form.
You can enter the expenses as Job-Related Expenses in the Employment Expenses section of TurboTax, since they may be allowed on your state tax return.
If you report your income as business income, then you can deduct the expenses as allowed by tax law, but only if you include the reimbursement in your income first.
