You have a $9,500 exemption because you are married ($8,800) and one of you is age 65 ($700).
$8,800 + $700 = $9,500.
Each taxpayer is entitled to claim a personal exemption. The amount of your personal exemption
depends on your filing status in line 1.
◗ If you are single or married filing a separate return, enter $4,400 in line 2a.
◗ If filing as head of household, enter $6,800 in line 2a.
◗ If married filing a joint return, enter $8,800 in line 2a
You are allowed an additional $700 exemption if you were age 65 or over before January 1, 2023. If your spouse was age 65 or over and you are filing a joint return, you may also claim a $700 exemption for your spouse. Fill in the appropriate oval(s) and enter the total number of persons age 65 or over in the small box. Multiply that total by $700 and enter the total in line 2c.
