Home Office Deduction Update

On Tuesday January 15, 2013 the IRS announced a new simplified deduction for home offices that will go into effect the next tax year. This deduction will:

  • increase flexibility
  • save time and expenses for small businesses that operate out of their home
  • allow business owners the option of taking a standard $1500 deduction for expenses related to a home office
  • prevent the need for complicated calculations about the allocation of expenses required under the existing home office deduction
