My employer deducts $10 per paycheck for uniform cleaning. Can I deduct this anywhere?

[CherylW]

Yes, you can.

This, from IRS Publication 529:

You can deduct the cost and upkeep of work clothes if the following two requirements are met.

• You must wear them as a condition of your employment.

• The clothes aren't suitable for everyday wear.

To do that:

1. Go to Deductions & Credits. 

2. Select I'll choose what I work on. 

3. Scroll down to Employment Expenses. 

4. Click Start or Update by Job-related Expenses. 

5. Work your way through the screens till you get to one that says Job-Related Expenses. 

Enter uniforms and cleaning expense here.
