I moved from FL to TN in the last tax year. Someone has said that if I have receipts from my moving company I can "claim" these on my taxes. First of all, can I? Second, how do I do this?
Thanks in advance,
A clueless worker drone

If the move was because of a change in jobs, then yes you can.

Yes, it was due to a work related relocation.
So, I can.
How do I do this?

You need to file Form 1040 and with it, claim your allowable moving expenses on Form 3903.
