Investors & landlords
thanks for your help
The office percent is what is allowed for any house related expenses for the office. The fact that you allow the dogs in the rest of the house, or the yard, is not something that would create a bigger expense for your office.
I was actually concerned about the opposite, less of a deduction. For the home office entries, in forms view TT asks what percentage of my gross business income is from business us of home. In steps mode TT asks what percentage of time I spend conducting business in my home office. It says it impacts allowable home office deduction.
I had only put the percentage of my income from dog visits to other peoples homes. Wasn't sure about all the time I spend with the dogs outside of the home office room.
Simplified method... I love the idea of no depreciation recapture, but because I don't itemize my mortgage and property tax deductions, the simplified method is a much smaller deduction, but maybe the headache should be added as an expense 😉
