Okay can you just tell me what the home office tax deduction is for filing someone's taxes?

Sure, I’ll tell you the basics:  Home office tax deductions are deductions allowed by the IRS for expenses that are related to running a home business, like a small business you run from your house, and are limited to the primary residence.  This could be you running your business or even your spouse running the business, as long as the business is at your house.  You are also allowed to deduct a limited amount of your home office expenses as well as your spouse’s home office expenses.  But this deduction does not apply to a home office that is an integral part of the business but also provides a private residence for you.
