Hi, I am trying to add in my work uniform (scrubs and footwear) as an unreimbursed expense, but unsure which line under 2106-EZ section C to choose. None seem to fit?

(I'm a dental assistant) The only option that makes any modicum of sense is the 'Misc 2% Itemized (State)' option, but I don't know what that means. Every other option definitively does not apply.

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.
