How can I change #41 to leave it BLANK on Form 2106? I can't find the section to edit that one cell.

How can I change #41 to leave it BLANK on Form 2106? I can't find the section to edit that one cell.

Job-related expenses for employees are no longer deductible on most people’s federal return in tax years 2018 through 2025 due to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) that Congress passed and the President signed into law on December 22, 2017. However, the job-related expenses deduction is still available to people who work in one of these specific professions or situations:

  • Armed Forces reservist
  • Qualified performing artist
  • Fee-basis state or local government official
  • You're disabled and have impairment-related expenses

Additionally, job-related expenses may be deductible in your state. When you enter your expenses TurboTax will figure out if you can deduct them. Can employees deduct any job-related expenses?

 

To Edit form 2106:

  • Login to your account.
  • Select Federal from the left menu.
  • Go to Deductions and Credits.
  • Scroll down to Employee Expenses
  • Select Edit next to Job-Related Expenses.
  • On the Job-Related Expenses Summary screen, select  Edit (for an existing 2106),
