I retired as a deployed (domestic) field engineer and have moved to my domicile. My company paid for a portion of my move. Can I claim the rest of my move on taxes?

I spent two years as a domestically deployed field engineer out of the north east. I retired and moved to Washington state. Employer paid a portion of the relocation. Can I deduct the remainder on taxes?

Unfortunately, no. The new tax law ended the deduction for moving expenses, except for active duty military moving due to military orders.

**Answers are correct to the best of my ability but do not constitute tax or legal advice.
