Can You Write Off Jury Duty Expenses?
Short answer: No, but jury pay you hand over to your employer can be deducted above the line.
Jury duty pay itself is taxable.
Records to keep: Keep receipts, statements (1098, 1098-T, 1099, W-2G), and a note of what each cost was for. Compare itemizing to the 2026 standard deduction before you claim.
