    Yes on the moving expenses if he stays in place for at least 39 weeks. Further, if he works for LESS than a year, he can claim daily living expenses because the job is considered to be temporary in nature.

    He will file Form 2106 and claim the exepneses as an itemized deduction if he is working under Form W-2.

    If he is working under Form 1099-MISC, then he claims the daily living costs on Schedule C.
