Can you explain the standard tax deduction? Also I wasn’t able to claim my mom even though I fully take care of her since she’s not able to get SSI just yet.

My mom isn’t able to work since she has a lot of health problems that prevent her from working and we’re in the process of appealing her first denial of SSI. I’m not sure why I couldn’t claim her. Can you help? Can you explain what exactly the standard tax deduction is as well?
