ERock Tax Tip – Claim Unreimbursed Expenses on Form 2106

Tax Tip of the Day – Claim Unreimbursed Employer Business Expenses

Do you incur any unreimbursed business expenses from your employer?  Expenses could include travel, attending conferences, using your cell phone or automobile mileage. Any amount you spend on unreimbursed employer business expenses above 2% of your adjusted gross income is deductible on your Schedule A itemized deductions form.  You may also be able to deduct a home office expense as well on form 8829, but be careful about this one!
