Does claiming a home-office deduction increase your risk of an audit?

A lot of people believe that claiming a home office deduction is like waving a cape in front of a bull.

They think that if they claim this valuable deduction the IRS will react with an audit and put them in a world of pain.

But is this true? Does writing off your home office really open a Pandora’s box?

You’ll get straight answers when you read my new article titled Tax Tips: Myth: Home-Office Tax Deduction Is a Red Flag for IRS Audit.

Three ways our fact-filled article can help you:

1. We’ll tell you the truth about IRS “red flags.” The simple fact is, the IRS doesn’t publish a list of its audit flags. So anyone who says that claiming a home-office deduction sets off an audit is merely speculating. You’ll get the facts (not speculation!) when you read the full article.
2. You’ll learn the results of a revealing poll. We polled 36,000 attendees at our continuing education seminars and compared the audit rate of home-office deduction claimants versus non-claimants. You’ll get the surprising poll results when you read the full article.
3. We’ll explain why you don’t have to worry. If you’re complying with IRS rules, don’t hesitate to claim the home-office deduction. “The only thing you have to fear is fear itself”… as you’ll discover when you read the full article.
