We'll help you get started or pick up where you left off.

Is my moving expense deductible? I checked "My move to a new location was work-related" then Turbotax filled the cost in form 3903. But I am not a military member.

Do you have a W-2 with a code P in box 12?
Was your move in 2017 but were not paid until 2018?

@macuser_22  I do not have code P and the move occurred in 2018.

Then it is not deductible.  Only military can claim in 2018.

Form 3903 instructions:

Moving expense deduction eliminated, except for certain
Armed Forces members. For tax years beginning after 2017, you
can no longer deduct moving expenses unless you are a member of
the Armed Forces on active duty and, due to a military order, you
move because of a permanent change of station.


There is an excretion for non-military if the move took place in 2017 but was not reimbursed by the employer on a W-2 in box 12 with code P until 2018.
