Can Per Diem deductions include family travel, meals and housing?
I have a house in one place and found a job in another place that pays very good rate.
Since I don't want to live separately from my family I want to rent a house near work place and live together with family until contract ends.

Since I will keep paying mortgage and utilities for my own house together with living in rented house, can I deduct all my family living expenses (rent, food, utilities, doctors, pre-school) ?
Is there a limit to such expenses ?

You cannot deduct anything. Since you're actually moving, your tax home will move with you.

You can only deduct the moving expenses (actual moving - packing, shipping, and hotels while you drive yourself there).
