Tax Deductible Moving Expenses

Many of the expenses connected with moving may be tax deductible, if the move is job related. Some of these include: 

  • The cost of moving your household goods.
  • Expenses incurred while house-hunting.
  • Travel expenses during the move for you and your family.
  • The cost of meals and temporary lodging for up to 30 days after you get the new job.
  • The expenses, of selling your house and buying a new one. 

To substantiate your claim, keep an accurate, detailed account of your moving expenses, including all receipts.
