Is there an automatic deduction for unreimbursed employee expenses?

[farley25894]

I had about $800 in unreimbursed employee expenses. When the program calculated everything there was an additional $5000 added to the expense. Where is this coming from? I have inputted the data more than once. Thank you for your help.

There are three lines in #12 with figures.  $549 C, $4500 E, $6318 DD. Is this the correct info? There are also another $1161 C, 8993 DD, 12953 E. on another W2.

Under the new tax law, unreimbursed employee expenses are not deductible for 2018.

Is there a $5,000 figure listed in Box 12 of your W-2 form?  If so, what is the code with it?
