Gather Necessary Information

Before you begin, ensure you have all relevant documents and data, such as receipts for vehicle expenses, travel costs, and any employer reimbursements. Knowing your eligibility for filing Form 2106 is crucial, so confirm whether you are an Armed Forces reservist, qualified performing artist, fee-basis state or local government official, or have impairment-related work expenses.

Details worth checking

Eligibility Verification

Form 2106 is reserved for specific groups like Armed Forces reservists and qualified performing artists. Filing without eligibility can lead to incorrect reporting and penalties.

Exclusion of Suspended Deductions

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act suspended certain deductions under section 67(a). Claiming these can lead to miscalculations and penalties.

Accurate Reporting of Reimbursements

Failing to report employer reimbursements can result in 'double-dipping' and penalties. Accurate reporting is crucial to avoid this.

Correct Handling of Commuting Expenses

Commuting expenses are generally non-deductible. Incorrect reporting can lead to inaccuracies in your tax return.

Distinguishing Travel Expenses

Only work-related travel expenses are deductible. Reporting personal travel can lead to incorrect deductions.

Comprehensive Expense Reporting

Overlooking job-related expenses not listed on the form can lead to underreporting and lost deductions.
