Can I deduct a home office for my business if I have a dedicated work only space, I live with my parents, I do not pay rent, but I do pay for part of the utilities ?

I have a home office in my parents house, can I deduct utilities that I pay for even though I don't own the house?

Unless you own or rent the space you can’t claim it as a home office.
