The simplified deduction for your home office is $5 per square foot, up to 300 square feet. The deduction for an office that is 300 square feet would be $1,500.
If the K-1 is from a partnership, does your partnership agreement require you to pay office expenses out of your own pocket?
If yes, you will need to calculate the expenses and enter them into TurboTax.
If no, you won't be able to take a deduction for office expenses.
