Home office renovations are tax deductible in certain circumstances. First, you must be eligible to take a deduction for your home office. From a federal tax standpoint, you must be a business owner or self-employed to take this deduction. If you are an employee working from home, you cannot take the home office tax deduction federally. (If you pay state income taxes, some states do allow this deduction.) If you are eligible to take a home office deduction, you should be able to take deductions for your home office renovation.
