I moved from one town in VA to another town 30 miles away in 2008. I was forced to move because my landlord foreclosed on the home that we were renting. We bought a new house in the new town and I kept my same job.

Can I claim my moving expenses on my taxes? If so, which expenses; hotel while we waited to close on the new house, moving company, storage, etc. Thanks.

No, first the distance isn't enough and second you didn't change jobs.
