Sch Y line 5 in Turbo Tax show moving expenses for members of the Armed Forces. In the desktop version, you can go into Forms mode and enter the number. This voids the accuracy guarantee. There isn't another way to enter the moving expenses.

 

MASS does allow the deduction if it is related to your job or business. Moving Expense Deduction - Mass.gov

Yes, you will be able to deduct the moving expenses on the Massachusetts state tax return.  @dimasin

After reading MA instructions I was under impression that anyone, not only member of military is eligible for "Moving expenses ".

Since line 5 states "members of Armed Forses", is it legal to claim moving expenses for non-military on this line?

Thank you so much for your help!
