where are you hearing / learning that information? can you send links or explain? i'd like to read more on it
it sounds like i should take the simplified deduction. if i was to deduct expenses individually, do i take the square footage of my home office and divide it by the total square footage of the house to get the percentage of the house that is my office? and then multiply by things like my power bill, gas bill, water sewer garbage, to get the percentage of that bill that is deductible?
also, what about shared spaces? like we store lots of my boxes in the shop, the entryway by my front door is constantly used for staging shipments / etc., can we add these areas to the home office deduction square footage? or is it just where my computer desk is?
