Dress clothes u buy to wear at work is that tax deductible?

No, those are not deductible.

The only clothing that is deductible is clothing that is required by your employer AND is unsuitable for wear outside the work environment, AND is distinctive to the work environment.

Those items are clearly suitable for use outside of the work environment (even if you'd never wear them yourself anyplace else) and are not distinctive to the work environment so they are not deductible.


Dusie
No, because they can be worn any time. Uniforms and scrubs are deductible.

No, not if you can wear them on the street or everyday.

No, you cannot deduct those clothes as work clothes. The only "work uniforms" that you can claim a deduction for is work uniforms that cannot, or normally are not, worn except at work.....for example, a police or fire uniform, hospital scrubs, mechanic overalls, etc. You can't claim a work uniform deduction for business clothes like dress shirts, suits, ties, etc.


2globetrek.com
Just what every one has agreed on, Uniforms or any job required clothing and equipment that is not provided by your employer.

Holy O pointed out the only exceptions. The suit that you bought to land that new job is tax deductable. I think shoes and ties can be included. I hope you saved your reciepts.

Business owners have their own exceptions. Talk with a tax professional.

No, only uniforms may be deductible


Judy1
No, the examples you give would not be deductible. Uniforms that are not suitable for everyday wear, like shirts with the company logo, can be deducted if you itemize to the extent that your total employee business-related expenses are larger than 2% of your income.

Possibly, if it is an actual work uniform that you buy from work with the logo on it, etc. But if it is just everyday clothing that you could wear out, then no.


Dizney
depends. Are the clothes something that you can wear places other than work? (e.g., suit, white button up shirt, etc...) If yes, they are not deductible.

If you need steel toed boots for construction work or scrubs for a doctor's office - that may be deductible.
