Why are my moving expenses not showing up on the summary tax breaks page?

I changed jobs and moved across the country, but on the summary of "Your tax breaks" it states $0.00. Other potential tax breaks appear on this page even if I dont eventually qualify, so I would think the moving expenses would appear here. It seems like they are not loading.

Why are my moving expenses not showing up on the summary tax breaks page?

Many taxpayers change their residence each year, and a substantial percentage of those taxpayer relocations involve new jobs. Prior tax laws permitted a taxpayer to deduct moving expenses provided the new job location was at least 50 miles farther from the taxpayer’s former home than the former main job location or, if the taxpayer had no former principal place of work, the new job location was at least 50 miles from the taxpayer’s former home. However, under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, §11048 and 11049, both the taxpayer’s moving expense deduction and the exclusion of an employer’s reimbursement or payment of the taxpayer’s moving expenses have been suspended except for military relocation.

 

Accordingly, any non-military moving expense is not deductible, and any reimbursement made by an employer is taxable as income to the employee.
