Yes, form 8829 Part 3 calculates the depreciation of your home the form then flows to Schedule C. There is no need for form 4562 to be included if you are just taking the home office deduction.

Form 4562 is for listed assets. It seems like you may have entered your home office as an asset in 2019 and just as a home office in 2020.
