How the Home Office Deduction Works for Hybrid Workers in 2026

Lucas and Luna unpack the home office deduction specifically for hybrid employees in 2026. They compare the regular method vs. the simplified method, highlight the key eligibility test — exclusive and regular use — and walk through how a graphic designer who works from home three days a week can qualify. They also discuss what happens when you sell your home if you've claimed the deduction, and how the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act changes still affect employees vs. self-employed filers. No abstract rules — real numbers, real scenarios. #HomeOfficeDeduction #HybridWork #TaxDeductions #SimplifiedMethod #RegularMethod #SelfEmployed #IRS #Form8829 #BusinessUseOfHome #TaxStrategy #Finance #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #TaxPlanning #RemoteWork #2026Taxes #AuditRisk #DepreciationRecapture Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
