Since you already met the certification requirements for your profession, you would deduct these expenses as an itemized deduction, not in moving expenses. Enter your expense under Employment expenses>Job-related expenses.Your miscellaneous expense deduction is limited by a 2% Adjusted Gross Income floor, which means that if you itemize, you can only deduct the amount that is greater than 2% of your Adjusted Gross Income.
