The language is confusing for sure, tax law usually is. The issue is likely because the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) is temporary and currently is 2018-2025. Once 2026 rolls around, unless Congress makes any changes, everything rolls back to the way it was before. It's up to you if you want to take your chances based on the various guidance you have received. It's not unclear that the TCJA eliminated employee job related expenses, including those for under the Department of Transportation hours of service.
Once the return is completed are you saying the Schedule A itemized deductions actually show these expenses? The information entry is allowed, however the expenses do not actually carry to the itemized deductions on my test unless one of the employment status that qualify is selected.
