If your husband is an employee, he can no longer the home office deduction as of 2018 due to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act that was signed into law in December 2017.

But if he is self-employed, housing-related expenses such as mortgage interest, rent, utilities, repairs, and depreciation for the portion of his home or rental that he uses to run his business are allowable expenses under the home office deduction.

Please read this TurboTax Help topic for more information.

2018 AGI is reported on form 1040 line 7. If you can't locate your 2018 return, you can request an online transcript or a copy by mail from the IRS transcript website.
