Filing online
- With your tax return open, select Federal from the navigation menu on the left (if you're doing this on a mobile device, you'll probably need to scroll down).
- Now select Deductions & Credits near the top of your screen.
- Proceed through the screens, answering questions as necessary. Eventually you'll come to the screen Based on what you just told us, the Standard Deduction is best for you or Based on what you just told us, itemizing deductions is best for you.
- On that screen, select Change my deduction. You'll get a pop-up showing how much each deduction is worth.
- From here, you can either change your deduction by selecting it and continuing forward or cancel out.
- Please note that if you're switching to the itemized deduction from Free Edition, you'll need to upgrade to Deluxe, as Free Edition doesn't handle Schedule A.
