Moving Doesn't Have to Be Frustrating!

Are Moving Expenses Tax Deductible?

T-N-T Moving Systems is here to help you move around the greater Charlotte area in the most efficient and easy way for you and your family. Moving can be an exciting time or dreaded time, depending on many circumstances. If you are finally moving into your dream home then it is one that will be very exciting but if you have to move for your job, for the government, or because of a natural disaster then the move might not be so exciting. However, what you might not know is that moving expenses are often tax deductible. 

If your move is work related, you might be able to deduct moving expenses from your federal income taxes. To qualify for tax deductible moving expenses, you must work a certain amount and your prior home must be located an unacceptable distance from your new job. 

The location of your new career must be greater than 50 miles from your previous home to previous job. If you were unemployed or worked from home then your new place of work must be at least 50 miles away. Once you move, you must be working full time for at least 39 weeks in the first 12 months this is considered a reasonable about of time to justify moving. 

Of course, there are exceptions to these rules. When it comes to factors like death, disability, and involuntary separation, amongst others, the rules may be different depending on your circumstances. If the cause of your move is due to being a member of the armed forces, you do not have to satisfy the distance or time requirements. 

The IRS allows you to deduct expenses including the cost of packing, transporting your goods, storage, insurance, connecting and disconnecting utilities, lodging and transportation while moving.

Unfortunately, meals and house-hunting expenses are not deductible. Also, breaking a previous lease is not considered deductible. 

T-N-T Moving Systems is here to help you make the most out of your move. Moving can be a lot of work.
