Hello,
Per the South Carolina Tax Website, Resident individuals who are 65 or older by the end of the tax year are allowed an Income Tax deduction of up to $15,000 against any South Carolina taxable income. Amounts deducted as retirement income reduce this $15,000 deduction. Retirement income is partially taxed in South Carolina. However, individuals aged 65 and older can claim up to $10,000 in retirement income deductions from pensions, 401(k)s, IRAs and other retirement accounts.
Also on your federal standard deduction , if you are 65 or older or blind, you can claim an additional standard deduction. For 2023, that additional standard deduction is $1,850 if you are single or file as head of household. If you're married filing jointly or separately, the extra standard deduction amount is $1,500 per qualifying individual.
I hope it helps, please let us know if you have any additional questions.
Enjoy your day!!
