If I left the big 4 and had to pay back the sign on bonus, how do I claim that back in my taxes? Or is that dealt with automatically

It goes based on when you repaid. If it was under 3000, there’s nothing you can do. Over 3000 you have a choice to either take a deduction on your 2021 tax return for the amount repaid, or recalc your 2020 tax without the bonus and claim the difference as a credit on your 2021 tax return. Go to page 36 of IRS pub 525. https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p525.pdf You do not amend your 2020 return.

I took the credit so don’t know but I think it’s a Schedule A deduction if you do the deduction

Sorry just realized so I left big 4 and repaid the bonus in 2021, but got the bonus in 2020

Following. I think you might need to amend your old return
