Teacher expenses are included in the Deductions and Credits section of TurboTax under Employment expenses.

I have entered my teacher expenses in the educator expenses area - but TT says I am not eligible as I earlier said I have no expenses.  I cannot find where to go back and correct this - can you please help??

To correct your answer, revisit the Teacher (Educator) expense under Employment expenses in the Federal Deductions and Credits section, you should be able to change your answer on the screen Did you spend your own money as a teacher in 2024? to Yes

 

 

If you’re a K-12 teacher buying your own classroom supplies, you can deduct up to $300 from these expenses.
