Where is the adjustment for people born before Jan. 2, 1953? I see the check box for indicating it, but do not see any adjustment to the taxable income.
This is for 2017 taxes.

It's on line 40 of form 1040 (or line 24 0f 1040A).
Instead of a $6350 standard deduction, you get $7900; a $1550 adjustment.
The numbers will be different if your filing status is Married Filing Jointly
