Deductions & credits
We aren't really experts on local tax laws.
To take the home office deduction, you must use your home regularly and exclusively for business. (Here, exclusive means you use part of your home for business and do not share that part of your home with any personal use.). If you have more than one place of business, your home must also be your main place of business to use the home office deduction. It would be acceptable for it to be your main place of business in some months and not others, if you pro-rated the expenses, but your home must be your main place of business.
While I have not read the Virginia business law you reference, it stands to reason that if your home is your main place of business, you owe whatever taxes and fees you would owe if your main place of business is in VA.
