When I edit my charitable contributions to add more, why does the non-itemized donations total not update? (I'm taking the standard deduction)
When I got to the point where TT had checked our deductions and determined we should stick with the standard deduction, it brought me to a screen that said we could still deduct up to $600 in cash donations (married, jointly). I entered $290 for the total, and later found records of additional donations that brought our total up over $600. I've gone back and edited the charitable donations section under deductions to include those additional donations. Now I can see $613 as the total in that section, but our refund didn't change, and when I click to see a refund breakdown, it shows non-itemized charitable donations totaling $290 (the original figure I entered) as a deduction. I can't figure out how to get that number to update, because adding the other donations in the deduction section only seems to be counting toward an itemized total. Is there a way to navigate back to the screen where I specifically was asked for the non-itemized cash donations total for this year?
