As a full time student who moved 3 times in 2014, I met all required criteria. 1 - for school; 2- summer work; 3 - rtn to school. How do I enter 3rd move? (ea = $200)

Although each move meets the criteria and not much in cost ($200), the program appears only to allow two moves.

The moving expenses for school reasons are only claimable against educational income, such as taxable bursaries of scholarships.  There aren't many of those that are taxable income, so you  might never get a benefit from it. 

You will not be able to deduct the move back home.  The best claim for moving expense is the the move for the employment.

This answer doesn't even remotely answer the question.  I have the same problem I need to enter 3 moves and the program allows only 2.  BTW you absolutely can deduct moving expenses while in school if you moved to work or do a co-op!  Is this a problem with TURBO tax?
