I am having the same issue.
If I opt for the actual expense calculation method I can get through it and get a deduction.
(Which by the way is really confusing when it comes to mortgage and taxes. I found I had to go ahead and enter in 1098 for mortgage before going through this or it had problems. And the wording is so confusing when it comes to what needs entering in the excess interest or real estate tax deductions.)
But if I select simple home office calculation, I get the message: The net profit for your work was zero or less, which means you can't claim any home office deductions.
This part need work for sure.
