Deductions & credits

It sounds like you are unmarried and over age 65 so that is the correct amount.

 

$12,400 + $1,650 = $14,050

 

 

2020 standard deductions

$12,400 Single
$18,650 Head of Household
$24,800 Married Jointly

Add an additional $1,300 for over age 65 or blind
This amount increases to $1,650 if the taxpayer is also unmarried.
