Retirement tax questions

Sorry the extra $300/600 charity deduction you got in addition to the Standard Deduction is no more.  That was only for the last 2 years.  That is not continued.  A lot of the extra Covid credits and rules have gone away.   Now  you only can get the Charity deduction on Schedule A if you itemize all your deductions and don't take the Standard Deduction.  

 

For 2022 the standard deduction amounts are:

Single 12,950 + 1,750 for 65 and over or blind (14,700)

HOH 19,400 + 1,750 for 65 and over or blind (21,150)

Joint 25,900 + 1,400 for each 65 and over or blind (27,300/28,700)

Married filing Separate 12,950 + 1,400 for 65 and over or blind (14,350)
