Thank you. I deleted the home office worksheet and did it again and it accepted it. I did itemized deduction this time which happened to offer me more deduction. Turbotax software also seemed like it applied the carryover unallowed loss from 2017. Where in the tax form can I see these valued entered to make sure it is being correctly processed?
Also, what is the effect on entering my carryover business loss? How is my AGI or tax liability affected by this? I imagine this is my net profit (which was negative) from 2018.
If your Business has a negative income, that amount lowers your AGI for that year.
If you weren't allowed to claim your all of your Business Loss last year, the NOL carryover shows on the Federal Carryover Worksheet.
Look at Schedule 1, Line 3 for Business Income/Loss (Line 12 for 2018). This carries over to Form 1040, Line 7a.
You weren't allowed the Home Office Deduction (because you had a negative business income) so that is also being carried over.
Look at Form 8829, Business Use of the Home, Line 25 for last year's unallowed deduction for Home Office.
