Yes, he did get a W-2. He is a doctor who does not have an office other than in his home, I've put everything in Lacerte to take the deduction but it does not pull through to offset the K-1 income?

A corporation does not have a home to take a home office deduction, therefore there is no deduction on the 1040.

For the future, if the corporation were to either rent office space from the shareholder or reimburse the shareholder/employee for office expenses (preferably under an Accountable Plan), then the corporation could take a deduction for what it pays.

I don't think anybody can. A sub S isn't like an partnership where you can adjust the earnings with business expenses paid by the partner.

IF allowed, those expenses would be employee business expenses. And those went away for Federal purposes with TCJA of 2017
