Deductions & Credits home office is only for employee job expenses for W2 income not schedule C self employment business expenses.
Do you pay for the Groupon advertising? Because you can NOT deduct the discounts you gave the clients unless you first included it in your income.
You can't deduct income you never received. You will just have less income to be taxed on. You take the loss by still deducting all your expenses but not your time or labor. Unless you entered the full amount before the discount as income, then you can deduct the discount under Advertising or Misc Expense.
