Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Line 15 is your standard deduction or itemized deduction.It is saying that 15b + 15c = 15a.

 

If you took the standard deduction, 15a would be $24,400, 15b would be $12,200 and 15c would be $12,200.

 

If you itemized, you will need to find the total of your itemized deductions and then figure out how much belongs to each of you.
