These expenses are deductible as part of the unreimbursed employee business expenses on are reported on Schedule 2106. The travel expenses related to lodging expenses and meals as well as other incidental expenses that your employer did not reimburse you would also be deductible.

However, please note that these expenses are subject to the 2% AGI limit and includable on Line 21 of the Schedule A of the Individual Tax Return!
