Yes, the additional senior deduction is reflected in TurboTax Online, all versions.

 

The senior deduction is automatically calculated by TurboTax based on the dates of birth you entered for each spouse.

 

The senior additional deduction appears on line 37 of Schedule 1-A of your form 1040, with that amount flowing to line 13b of your form 1040.

 

In TurboTax Online, you can only view Schedule 1-A after registering and paying the TurboTax fee.

 

But you can preview your form 1040 and check line 13b of your form 1040 which includes the senior deduction among other deductions if applicable, such as the tip deduction, the overtime or the car loan interest deduction.

 

to preview your form 1040 in TurboTax Online, follow these steps:

 

  1. Open your return
  2. In the left-hand column, locate Tax Tools, click on the drop-down arrow then click on Tools
  3. On the Tools Center page, click on View Tax Summary
  4. In the left-hand column, click on Preview my 1040
  5. Your form 1040 will display.
  6. Scroll down to line 13b  and you should see the amount of this deduction included in this line.

If you are age 65 or older and meet the requirement, the additional deduction is automatically added on your federal tax return.

 

Standard deductions for 2025

Single - $15.750 add $2,000 if age 65 or older
Married Filing Separately - $15,750 add $1,600 if age 65 or older
Married Filing Jointly - $31,500 add $1,600 for each spouse age 65 or older
Head of Household - $23,625 add $2,000 if age 65 or older

 

New Bonus Standard Deduction (OBBB):
An additional $6,000 deduction for taxpayers 65 and older.
This is per eligible individual, meaning a married couple both over 65 could get $12,000.
Important: This bonus deduction is temporary, lasting from 2025 through 2028.
Income limitations: It phases out for taxpayers with modified adjusted gross income over $75,000 for single filers and $150,000 for joint filers.


The amount is calculated on Schedule 1-A, Part V, with that amount flowing to Form 1040 Line 13b

Look at your Form 1040 -

My premium 1040sr after all done does not reflect my deduction for being a senior. Unable to get this Schedule 1a even to show up. Why?

If you are filing as Married Filing Separately you are not eligible for the deduction.  If you are Single and your AGI is over $175,000 or Married Filing Jointly and your AGI is over $250,000 you are not eligible for the deduction.

 

If you are age 65 or older and meet the requirement, the additional deduction is automatically added on your federal tax return.
