No.

You'd need to be able to itemize, and unless you have a plethora of deductions(or a few children) or both, most of the time it makes sense to take the standard deduction.

Check with your local CPA. But 'no' I would not.

I usually write off my study materials & vouchers, but I have a lot of deductions. Kids, home office, donations, and stuff like that.

I always write them off as "business expenses" but I always itemize.
