For those of you who were required to use your home as your principal place of
business during this pandemic and used a portion of your apartment on a regular and
exclusive basis for administrative or management activities, you may be allowed to
claim eligible expenses for tax purposes. This may apply whether you own or rent the
apartment you worked from. You’ll also need to identify the direct and indirect
expenses you incurred and determine what percentage of your apartment you used
when working from home. So the sooner you get started the better.

If you received a stimulus payment as a result of the CARES Act that was signed
into law on March 27, 2020, is your stimulus payment taxable? The IRS said: “No, the
payment is not income and taxpayers will not owe tax on it. The payment will not
reduce a taxpayer’s refund or increase the amount they owe when they file their 2020
tax return….. It also said, “A payment also will not affect income for purposes of
determining eligibility for federal government assistance or benefit programs.”

controlling documents do not permit
holding Annual Meetings by
videoconferencing, so the meeting must
be held in person.
