Form 8829 Worksheet Error: Allocable home office expenses....It is asking me to make an entry (line 7) "if there is more than one home office" I only have one. I Googled for help and they all say to remove 2nd office from the summary in Schedule C/Business section. There is only one showing. I checked everywhere over and over. I moved, but I stopped my consultant business when I moved. I made sure that I have everything checked saying I only had one home office and one location, etc. my old address is the home office and that is how it shows in the summary. Please help, I am going to lose my mind and I want to get this done. I have been messing with it for a few days and cant file until this is fixed. There are a couple of other things that "need fixing" too and I cant get to them until I fix this.
As radical as it may seem, consider delete everything that approximates a home office or home office worksheet in the return and start fresh. It may save you more time in the end.

If so, look for and click Delete next to Form 2106 (Employee) -- Form 2106 Adjustments Wks -- Employee Home Office Wks.
