I appreciate you trying to help, but your answer is not quite correct:
1.) From the IRS website ( this is a quote from the website):
Form 1040-SR is available as an "optional" alternative to using Form 1040 for taxpayers who are age 65 or older. Form 1040-SR uses the same schedules and instructions as Form 1040 does.
2.) Turbotax chose form 1040 not form 1040SR for me:
I used TurboTax to create a new return. Turbotax transferred the data from my previous return and chose to create a form 1040 even with the information that I was 65 years old. I was not prompted to choose form 1040 or 1040SR. Using form 1040, TurboTax CORRECTLY calculated the standard deduction for my age. TurboTax did not need form 1040SR to correctly calculate the deduction. However, when I drilled down into the worksheets there is no information about the increased deduction. When I right clicked, and sought additional information there was none. Users buy TurboTax to prepare their taxes AND to provide guidance and information. I truly hope you try this first should you decide to make an additional comment.
The problem I reported is valid and I am requesting an update for this problem.
