Question

If both my husband and I are self-employed MFJ, do we only enter in communication expenses once?

You both will enter your own expenses and allocate it based on business use. For example, if the total phone bill is $80 then you can allocate $40 to you and then $40 for your husband if that is how much each of you paid.

 

Then, you will further allocate your $40 phone bill based on the business use portion. For example, if your phone was used 25% of the time for business, then you can only take a 25% deduction. The rest 75% is not deductible since it was for personal use.

Okay, that's what I figured. Thank you!
