I was taught the "home office" deduction was the biggest red flag the IRS had for audits. Only do it if it is a true home office and you can prove every expense. Also medical deductions have to be 7 1/2 of your yearly income before you could deduct it (last I heard). Check out the present law.Do you work from home. Does you job require u to have a home office.

You definitely had a home office then. I just want to warn people to be prepared to defend it. You were audited. QED.A few years ago I received a large settlement. When I put this money in the bank it triggered an audit. The agent have me no grief about my home office. She even pointed out a few things I hadn't claimed.
