How much do I put in Total income earned at this job box? I started working from home on 7/12/18. Do I put pay since 7/12/18 or entire year?

I've been working for C. T. Lowndes & Co since 1985. I started working from home on 7/12/18. I'm trying to enter info on home office on TurboTax.

The home deduction deduction for employees has been eliminated for tax years 2018 to 2025 by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.

If you are an employee, you cannot claim your home office.

The home office deduction is only available for self-employed people.

If you are self-employed, then you enter the income earned from 7/12/2018, not for the full year.
