Can i claim tax expense deduction as a part-time realtor?

[Huiping S.]

I have a full-time job and part-time as a realtor (few months during 2016).  I got the 1099-MISC. To prepare the license there are expenditures, including pay for BP membership.

Can those expenses be deducted on my 2016 tax return?

If yes, this is not employee expenses because I am not the employee of the broker, which expenses should I claim on tax return?

The TurboTax seems show I can deduct it when I enter the income, but I couldn't figure out where to deduct it.

Thanks for help!

Huping, you received a F1099 for commissions as a real estate agent?  If so, file a Schedule C reporting all incime received as a real estate agent whether or not reported to you on F1099.  Then you can deduct your ordinary and necessary expenses for your business as a real estate agent on schedule C.
