Home Office Deductions

My husband has one home office that he use's for both his business in sales and marketing and also for his full-time job as a W2 employee.

 

I've entered the home office expenses for his business. Later, when asked about his expenses as an employee do I enter all the home office info again? Also, do I check the box that states "Real estate taxes entered here were already entered on another home office"? Again, he only has one office but he uses it for both his business and for his job as a W-2 employee.

Home Office Deductions

W-2 employees cannot deduct job-related expenses on a federal return.  Job-related expenses were eliminated as a federal deduction for W-2 employees by the tax laws that changed for 2018 and beyond.  Your state tax laws might be different in AL, AR, CA, HI, MN, NY or PA.
