Question

My husband now works from home full time. We had a door installed on our study, so that he could have privacy while working. Can we deduct this expense?

If your husband is an employee receiving a W-2, then the expense is not deductible.  

 

If your husband is a business owner reporting income and expenses on Schedule C with a qualified home office, then the expense may be deducted as directly related to the home office.
