If i moved because i relocated for work but that was my choice, do i still claim for moving expenses? Even after my job said they were not going to pay me for moving?

Sorry, but moving expenses are not deductible on your federal tax return unless you are an active duty member of the military.   Tax reform took the moving deduction away.
