The IRS isn't going to reimburse your moving expenses. All you are doing is deducting from your taxable income, your "qualified" moving expenses. So if your move was for the convenience of your employer, or because you changed jobs, your expenses are qualified is the distance test is met. Otherwise, if you moved just because you wanted to, then none of your expenses qualify.  Again, your moving expenses are just excluded from your taxable income. They are not reimbursed as a part of your tax return.
