Funny, in TurboTax it asks for job related expenses such as "required equipment, tools, publications or union dues"

All that stuff is deductible. Insurance I don't think so.

But, I think you can pay insurance premiums with your HSA Health Savings account which is not taxable income. However, SFBrains has already reduced this benefit and capped it.
