Opus yes I definately qualify a this room is only used as an office and is not used for any other purpose. When you say for the convenience of my employer allbof is have moved to our home and the office space was sold so I believe I meet that requirement. Phone and cable make sense in your response and thank you for that. Just a couple more questions below. PS I used the method of taking the total square footage and dividing the room for the total percentage.
1. If is use the simplified home use deduction do I still enter the electric water homeowner dues insurance etc?? If so do I enter the figure for the whole year (I.e add all electric bills for entire year the divide that by 12 or just enter the full amount and let turbo tax do the computing based on the percentage it calculated for the office
