If I moved for a job in November of 2016, can I claim moving expenses for my 2016 taxes?
Yes. Keep in mind though that "The distance between your new job and your former home must be at least 50 miles farther than your previous employer is from that home. For example, if your previous commute to work was five miles each way, then the distance from your new job location to your old home must be at least 55 miles. When evaluating whether you satisfy the distance test, the IRS requires you to use the shortest commutable routes between two locations."
