Deductions & credits
That is correct. Employee job related expenses are not tax deductible under current tax law unless you are one of the following:
- Armed Forces reservist,
- a qualifed performing artist,
- a fee-basis state or local government official,
- or an individual with a disability claiming impairment-related work expenses
This changed in 2017 with the new tax laws that went into affect back then. Prior to that, employee job related expenses were deductible as an itemized expense for the amount that was more than 2% of your AGI and then only if you itemized.
