WASHINGTON, DC (WUSA) -- Looking for a job can be taxing, but Kiplinger.com says you can deduct some of your job searching costs on your taxes.

Write off employment and outplacement fees, and travel as long as it's in the same line of work.

Printing and postage for your resume are deductible, too.

But, you cannot deduct these expenses if it's your first job or one in another line of work.
