Deductions & credits

As you work through your Schedule C, you should indicate that you have a home office.  TurboTax will take you through a series of questions to be sure that you qualify for the home office deduction.  

 

If you do qualify, then there will be a question asking how much of your work is performed in the home office versus other locations.  The answer to this question will be used to calculate any income-related limitations for claiming the home office.  Be aware that the limitation may prevent you from claiming both the home office and another office location.  

 

As for claiming the regular office in a building, you would simply enter the expenses related to this office as a business expense on your Schedule C.  For example, if you pay rent to use that office space, then enter the rent amount as a business expense.  There are no special qualifications to meet to claim an office that is not part of your home.
