Rev. 2023
Form 3903 is a moving expenses attachment for Form 1040, 1040-SR, or 1040-NR from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) of the Department of the Treasury. Eligible individuals who are Members of the Armed Forces on active duty and under military orders can claim deductions for moving expenses. Line 1 is for transportation and storage of household goods and personal effects, and line 2 is for travel (including lodging). The government's payment for these expenses, excluding wages shown in Form W-2 (box 1), should be entered on line 3. If the amount on line 3 is more significant than that on line 4 (the total of lines 1 and 2), then it can be deducted as a moving expense deduction on Schedule 1 (Form 1040), line 14.
Line 1 requires you to enter the amount paid for packing, crating, and moving household goods and personal effects. Additionally, if these goods were stored and insured for up to 30 days in a row after they were moved, this expense must also be reported.
Line 4 requires you to report the total amount received in reimbursements or allowances from the government for the expenses claimed on lines 1 and 2.
Line 2 requires you to report the amount paid for transportation (including fuel), lodging, meals, parking fees and tolls during a single trip per person. Use either:
- actual out-of-pocket expenses for gas and oil, or
- mileage at the rate of 22 cents a mile.
