Where to report educational travel on tax return?

I stayed at a hotel for a continuing education course. Do I report that as part of my educational expense deduction, or as a business travel expense on my tax return? Thanks!|||It is not deductible.


It is deductible only if it is required by your employer and you can then deduct it as employee job expenses on schedule A (itemized deduction). Read http://taxipay.blogspot.com/2008/05/item鈥?/a>|||And you couldn't take the class in the city where you live because? You couldn't drive home each night because?





If you intionally took a CPE class in a remote city to take a vacation, you can'd deduct any more than the class tuition.|||I agree with the above posters. You would claim such as by opting for the itemized deduction, instead of taking the standarized amount. However, I am not sure if the commuting cost to get CEU's to continue whatever license you have would qualify.
