Well, since I could not understand why my home-office expenses resulted in no change in my tax liability, I followed the forms to see what is going on. And I might have found the answer. At the end of the calculation, it says to transfer my home-office expenses to the forms for my partnership or S-Corp... which I don't have. I have a W2 for my remote work, and therefore my home-office expenses have nowhere to go to be considered deductible... A big effort to calculate these expenses - leading to no impact. Oh well...
