Do i calculate the total amount of rent paid for entire home when filling out the deductions for a home office?

[melovebowwow]

Amount for entire duration of work or the amount per month

Please elaborate. 

Are you self-employed or does your employer reimburse you for working from home?

Take note that any W-2 work related expenses incurred in 2022 are not deductible on your federal tax return. This includes a home office. Otherwise if you are self-employed, the program is asking for yearly totals. Keep in mind you only file a return once a year - not once a month.
