Office in Home

[Uncle Sam]

Married couple - husband is an employee of an outside employer. Wife is self-employed with office in home. Husband uses separate space for office in home. Each use equal amount of space.

After calculating wife's Form 8829 total (regardless of whether she can use it due to Schedule C loss), can I deduct the same calculated amount for husband on Schedule A Miscellaneous subject to 2%?

Maybe

I don't see why not, as long as the office in the home is for the employer's convenience, and not just because the employer wants to work at home.
