- There are significant limitations on many of your deductions.
- Compare this with the Standard Deduction.
- For single taxpayers and married individuals filing separately, the standard deduction is $12,950 in 2021.
- For married couples filing jointly is $25,900, and
- For heads of households, the standard deduction is $19,400.
- If you're at least 65 years old or blind, you can claim an additional 2022 standard deduction of $1,400 ($1,750 if using the single or head of household filing status).
- If you're both 65 and blind, the additional deduction amount is doubled.
Now please check your 1040, Line 12 to confirm which deduction was posted.
If the Itemized Deduction is still greater than the Standard deduction, and posted to line 12 of your 1040, please contact us again.
