Working remote for a company

[alakushi83]

I work remotely with company-provided hardware (e.g. laptop, monitor, etc.). Is there anything I can deduct that I provide for work? Thanks!

Possibly.  If you are an employee receiving a W-2, then you cannot claim business expenses on your Federal return.

Employee business expenses are suspended for the Federal return through 2025.  They may be claimed for certain states that did not conform to the Federal change.  If your state allows the deduction, then you would enter your expenses on Form 2106 as part of the Federal return.

If you are being paid as an independent contractor, then you would be eligible to claim expenses for your business that you had to pay.  

Examples of expenses could include office supplies, qualified home office expense,  or a portion of your internet access just to name a few.
