VolvoGirl--That's it!! (I think)
My charitable (cash) of $280 is higher than the difference between standard and itemized. (it was 27,479... so not much higher, but still...). So if I had had zero charitable deductions, then this would have worked... but the 280 brings the 27,479 down by 280, if I understand you correctly.
Maybe this explains another question I had. This same amount of 280 shows up on my social security benefits worksheet as being brought in from schedule 1, line 6. Yet.... that line is zero. I'll have to float that as a theory on that thread.
Thanks so much, to you and Dave.
