Question

Where do I enter moving expenses? I moved to California in 2024, my expenses are deductible, but I can't see where to enter them in TurboTax.

I can't see where to enter my moving expenses in TurboTax. These are deductible for my California state taxes (but not federal taxes). I can't see any option to enter them in the federal section (understandable) but can't see them in the California section either.

    Per the tax laws that changed for 2018 and beyond, moving expenses are not deductible on a federal return except for certain active duty members of the military.

    There are several states that allow a deduction for moving expenses on the state return:  AZ, AR, CA, HI, IA, MA, MN, NJ, NY, PA and VA  You can enter your moving expenses in the federal software and the information will flow to your state return.
