Moving expenses when work from home from a new place

Hi,

I moved from the west coat to the east coast in order to be closer to my employer's clients but I am still  part of the California office as I was before. However, I work from home now as there is no office at the new place. The company does have another office which is a few hundred miles.  Would I be eligible for moving expenses?

Thanks,

Rajesh

Per the tax laws that changed for 2018 and beyond, moving expenses are not deductible on a federal return except for certain active duty members of the military.

There are several states that allow a deduction for moving expenses on the state return:  AZ, AR, CA, HI, IA, MA, MN, NJ, NY, PA and VA  You can enter your moving expenses in the federal software and the information will flow to your state return.

Thanks.

If CA allows then I believe it would be for moving to CA and not out of CA . Is that right?
