Taxes Home Office

FootballFan from The Stadium -

Does anyone know a good site to go to, to find out more information on claiming a home office on your taxes. I work only part time from home, and I have a home office only dedicated to my work. I have heard there are certain items I can claim as a deduction. Any help guys?

Search for info on the IRS site. Or if you use a program to do your taxes it probably has a section on deductions for a home office.

I have heard that you can even deduct part of your electric build, internet, and several others. Make sure you check with the IRS first. I have an accountant that does mine.

I have a tax guy that does all of my taxes. I write off my cell phone, my internet, a portion of my home, car expenses, and more. Do check with the IRS for a list of available write offs.

You have already gotten some great advice. I started out with a tax guy when I first started operating a home business. I didn't want the stress. The last two years I have been doing on my own. I know what I can deduct and what I can't. It would be a benefit to have a professional do it atleast the first time around. You can always attempt it first yourself and then just have them look over it.
