Anyone has insights into whether we can claim depreciation for our “home office” due to WFH? Not an expert here but looks like it’s for self employed individuals only, but maybe the individual tax experts in this community can help everyone out a bit 🤪

Someone with less scruples will tell you to set up an LLC for consulting work you do in your side hustle and take all of your previously allowed deductions there as a self employed individual. They might even say that if you have no gross receipts to just add a number that is equivalent to 2% of your modified AGI so that the total deduction you are taking is no more than you would have been allowed had you taken them as unreimbursed employee business expenses. You may even want to show a profit one year, to you know, stay off the IRS hobby loss radar, and fund a SIMPLE IRA.

You could try to see if they will change you from employee to independent contractor. Downside is you aren’t a full 40 always, no insurance, and pay double on social security but can then deduct the depreciation.
