short form credit for home office deduction

[xmasbaby0]

Not sure what you are asking for.    There is not a "short form" now----not since the tax forms changed for 2018 and beyond.   If you are a W-2 employee you cannot deduct a home office on your federal return.   If you are self-employed it will go on your Schedule C with your other business expenses.  What are you trying to do?

trying to claim expense for employee working from home for the convenience of her employer, who was not reimbursed on her W-2.

Sorry---there is not a deduction on a federal return for that.

Sorry---W-2 employees cannot deduct expenses for working from home.  Job-related expenses were eliminated as a deduction for W-2 employees by the tax laws that changed for 2018 and beyond.  Your state tax laws might be different.
