Entering information regarding my home office.

[mcrissey42]

I'm at the very end of my fed. income tax 1040 and there is one entry that is driving me crazy to get it right. The size of my home insurance sales office is 155 sq. ft. The directions keep telling me to enter the lesser of the sq. footage or 300. When I do and go back to finish the form, it keeps sending me back to that entry again.

Help please.

Please see Can I take the home office deduction? and Where do I enter the home office deduction for my business?

You listed the total square footage of your home and you listed the square footage of your office?

Are you using actual expenses or the simplified method? I hope  those links find your issue and get you taken care of!
