Unfortunately, you cannot claim this as a deduction if you receive form W-2 for your income.

The new tax laws eliminated the deduction for job related expenses.

If you receive a 1099-MISC for this work, you can claim the expenses of your home office against this income.

You would need to upgrade to TurboTax Self-Employed.

You claim the expenses in Income & Expenses, after reporting the income.
