Are employees' personal purchases of consumables for use at work tax deductible employee business expenses ...?

. . . if those consumables help you perform your job duties, you keep them at your workplace, you use them exclusively at your workplace, your employer doesn't provide them to anyone, but you can provide photographic proof showing how they help both you and the employer?Are employees' personal purchases of consumables for use at work tax deductible employee business expenses ...?
In theory, yeah, deductible on schedule A, but the total is reduced by 2% of AGI, requires that you itemize, can trigger AMT and is subject of many an audit.Are employees' personal purchases of consumables for use at work tax deductible employee business expenses ...?
Maybe - you are a little cryptic with your question. If you are talking about necessary office supplies that the employer doesn't provide, very possibly yes. If you're talking about a bag of chocolate that makes everyone happy, no
Boy, oh boy. You are really scraping the bottom of the barrel with this one. Are you looking for coins trapped in your sofa, too?
