Default Pilot taxes

Ok question. How do we claim per diem or is that already adjusted on our W2? Also how and where do we claim student loan interest paid?

Go spend $35 on turbo tax and it will answer all those questions for you.

Default Turbo Tax

Does it have a database for pilot taxes or does it merely look at the code given for per diem?

Turbo tax has the rules for DOT time limited employees (which we are), but it will try to discourage you from claiming you are DOT by saying something like "except in certain cases."
