none of the above. you are posr=ting from online which would seem to indicate you get a w-2 (not self-employed). employee business expenses are no longer deductible for federal purposes and have never been deductible for Illinois personal income tax purposes. even if self-employed you have not provided enough information to determine if these expenses are deductible. explain why you need would need to stay at a motel or use a camper. what type of work are you doing? as to the camper are the payments lease payments or payments on financing. if the latter what's the cost of the camper.
if you don't have a permanent place of domicile motel expenses would be a nondeductible personal expense and as to the camper only interest and property taxes would be deductible as an itemized deduction subject to whatever limitations are in effect for that tax year.
