We have a salon built onto our house. Can we deduct the expenses for the whole year even though it was mandated to be closed most of 2020?
No. It follows the rules of a home office. You must regularly use part of your home exclusively for conducting business. For example, if you use an extra room to run your business, you can take a home office deduction for that extra room.
