Write Off Your EducationCrossing Membership Fees When You File Your Taxes

Pasadena, CA — Besides providing members with the most rapidly expanding and updated selection of education jobs, EducationCrossing would like to remind members that they may qualify to write off any job-seeking fees, which include membership fees to EducationCrossing.

According to the 2006 Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Publication 529 regarding job-search expenses, "You can deduct certain expenses you have in looking for a job in your present occupation, even if you do not get a new job."

These expenses include employment and outplacement agency fees, amounts you spend on preparing and mailing copies of a resume to prospective employers, and job-seeking travel and transportation expenses.

"This is a great benefit that all job seekers should be aware of," said CEO Harrison Barnes. "It's almost like an incentive from the government to strive toward your career goals — something many professionals should be doing."

EducationCrossing's monthly fee of $19.95 pays for access to the findings of hundreds of researchers, programmers, and other staff members who hunt down and post every single education job they can on a daily basis. In addition to its constant efforts to expand the resources and amount of jobs on its site, EducationCrossing also provides a series of weekly features on the hottest education news stories and trends.
