Question

Are nursing license renewal fees (for RN, PHN, CNS) tax deductible federally and/or in California? If so, where is it included within work expenses?

    if you get a W-2, they are not deductible for Federal but are for CA. you would enter them in the federal return schedule A . deductions and credits tab > employment expenses section > use the job-related expenses link

     

     

    if you are self-employed they go with your other job-related expenses schedule C.

    Thank you. I can’t tell which section it would go under on TurboTax?

    Actually I see this other option so I’ll list it there. Thanks!
