Get your taxes done using TurboTax

I've been using the regular method. I had used another room in the main floor as my home office, but since last year right after my basement got finished, I've been using the new room in my basement as my home office. 

It would be great if I can deduct the whole amount without having to deal with depreciation.

 

I've also talked to a TurboTax agent and he suggested me to deduct 1/6 of the cost through "Home office only" repairs and maintenance. Is that the correct place to put this in? If not let me know how I should proceed.
