Deductions & credits

The $1300 is the additional standard deduction and it is reported on form 1040 line 12.  People who are 65 and over or blind can claim an additional standard deduction of $1,300.

The $300 charitable donation on line 10b is correct. The special new provision allows people to deduct up to $300 in donations to qualifying charities this year. irs.gov
