Can i add my gas mileage in job expense?

You can claim anything that was not reimbursed by your employer. Gas and mileage are two separate deductions on Form 2106. You can use the steps below to find both of them in TurboTax Online to enter your information.

Follow the instructions below to add vehicle mileage and gas:

1. Select "Federal Taxes" at the top of the page

2. Select the "Deductions & Credits" sub-tab

3. Scroll down to "Employment Expenses" and select "Show More"

4. Select "Start" next to "Job Expenses for W-2 Income"

5. Select "Edit" next to your occupation(Or enter it when asked)

6. Continue forward through the screens answering the questions to enter your vehicle information and to enter mileage

7. After entering your mileage you should arrive to a screen asking "Do You Want to Enter Your Actual Expenses?", answer "Yes". On the next page enter your gas expense in the correct box

8. Continue entering your information until finished
