Deductions for a camper and lot Payment

[Deborahmae]

My husband has purchased a camper to sit on a lot for work in Nevada. Our main tax home is in Texas. He works six weeks out and 10 days in. Can we use Camper as a tax write off for our taxes?

Is your spouse self-employed or is he a W-2 employee?

W-2 employees cannot deduct job-related expenses on a federal return.  Job-related expenses were eliminated as a federal deduction for W-2 employees by the tax laws that changed for 2018 and beyond.  Your state tax laws might be different in AL, AR, CA, HI, MN, NY or PA.

If you live in a state that lets you deduct job-related expenses, the information will flow from your federal return  to the state return, so enter it in Federal>Deductions and Credits>Employment Expenses>Job-Related Expenses
