Deductions & credits

Currently moving expenses for an individual cannot be deducted.  This  deduction was suspended with the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.   If you are self-employed and file a Schedule C you can still deduct moving expenses related to business assets.

 

In summary, unless you are self-employed and file a Schedule C and the moving expenses are business related, then you cannot currently deduct moving expenses.

 

I hope this clarifies the current rules on moving expenses.
