I'm trying to use the what if worksheet to estimate my 2022 taxes.   It is showing a standard deduction of $25,100 for married filing jointly status.   I don't think this is correct.  Anyone else having this problem?

    You are correct. The 2022 standard deduction for a couple filing Married Filing Jointly will be $25,900. 

    However, I don't know where you saw that. 

    Please let me know the version (Deluxe, Premier, etc.) and the platform (Online, or Desktop/CD), and where you are seeing the entry. 

    Many Thanks.

    The ES & W4 Worksheet worksheet does show $25,900 as the 2022 standard deduction. It also shows the 2021 standard deduction of $25,100.

    The What IF Worksheet is definitely wrong on the standard deduction as well as over 65 exemption for 2022 rates. I'm using the Desktop Premiere version. It's still using 2021 rates.
