**Tax Year 2018 or Earlier**Can we claim internet as "Unreimbursed Employee Expenses"?

My husband works from home and needs the internet. His work never reimbursed us for it, but there is always the possibility that they would reimburse us if we submitted the bills to them.

Yes. You can claim the business use percentage if it is not reimbursed (or won't be reimbursed).

If it is for a job for with he works as an "employee" receiving a W-2, and they are not reimbursed to you, then you can deduct them as an Unreimbursed Employee Business Form 2106.  It goes on Schedule A Itemized Deductions in the Misc section subject to a 2% of Adjusted Gross Income threshold. That means his unreimbursed employee expenses over 2% of Adjust Gross Income will be included as a deduction.

Where do I enter job-related employee expenses? (Form 2106)
