home office deduction requirements — am I screwed?

I've been trying to resolve this on my own but I'm stuck.

home office deduction requirements. I've been dealing with this for about 15 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.

I have already consulted briefly with a lawyer but the other party is not cooperating.

What are my legal options here? Is it worth pursuing?

I went through almost the exact same thing.

The trap most people fall into is having everything documented. I'd recommend keeping a detailed timeline instead.

Yep, this is textbook.

Don't make the same mistake I did -- is filing with the appropriate government agency. I'd recommend gathering evidence first instead.

Just want to point out — the statute of limitations might be a factor here. In some states it's as short as 1-2 years. Don't sit on this too long.

Following this thread — +1, same situation. Hoping for good news.

Yeah have you tried reaching out to your state's consumer protection office? They sometimes have free resources or mediation services ngl.

I've dealt with this before.

What trips people up most is escalating to a supervisor/manager. I'd recommend following the formal complaint procedure instead.

This comes up a lot.

I ended up filing with the appropriate government agency, which cost about $4-8 but saved me a lot more in the long run.

I work in this industry and unfortunately this is very common. The good news is that when people actually push back with legal representation, companies usually settle.

This is depressingly common.

What worked for me was hiring an attorney to send the initial letter. It took 2-4 months but was worth it.

Honestly, i work in this industry and unfortunately this is very common. The good news is that when people actually push back with legal representation, companies usually settle.
