This IRS website states:   An identity protection PIN (IP PIN) is a six-digit number that prevents someone else from filing a tax return using your Social Security number (SSN) or individual taxpayer identification number (ITIN).   If you have been assigned an identity protection PIN (IP PIN) and lost it or did not receive a CP01A notice, you will need to retrieve your IP PIN online or have it reissued to avoid processing delays.    If you file your return without your IP PIN    The IRS will reject your electronic return. The IRS will review your paper return to verify your identity which will delay your refund. You are assigned an IP PIN if:    You are a victim of identity theft. You opted-in to receive an IP PIN. How to retrieve your IP PIN online    You may use your online account to retrieve your current IP PIN. Your IP PIN is available through your “Profile” page. If you don’t already have an account on IRS.gov, you will be asked to create an account and validate your identity.

Please clarify. Do you have a question about Form 1095-A or who should include the Form 1095-A on their return? (You have posted on a thread that has had no activity for 6 years.)   As the beginning of the 1095-A section in TurboTax Online states: "If you, your spouse, or any dependent you claim was covered or bought health insurance through places like your state's marketplace or Healthcare.gov you’ll have to report it". Even though your dependents' names don't appear in the drop-down menu, go ahead and select your or your spouse's name. The information you enter in Box 1 and Box 2 will correctly identify the policy.   See this help article and this tax tips article for instructions on entering Form 1095-A.   @ttftrvtrcrcrc   

  The “senior deduction” is added automatically by the software based on the date of birth and filing status you entered into MY INFO.  You do not need to take any extra steps to enter it. (And…the new senior deduction has nothing to do with whether you are getting Social Security)   The deduction is not on the same line as your standard deduction.  It is shown separately on line 13b.     2025 STANDARD DEDUCTION AMOUNTS SINGLE $15,750  (65 or older/legally blind + $2000) MARRIED FILING SEPARATELY $15,750  (65 or older/legally blind +1600) MARRIED FILING JOINTLY $31,500  (65 or older/legally blind + $1600) HEAD OF HOUSEHOLD $23,625 (65 or older/legally blind + $2000)     For 2025 through 2028 there is an extra  deduction amount of up to $6000 per individual 65 or older filing Single, MFJ, or HOH which is phased out for taxpayers with modified adjusted gross income over $75,000 for single filers and $150,000 for joint filers.   (The deduction phases out completely at $175.000 Single or HOH, or $250,000 joint)   The $6,000 senior deduction will be calculated on 1040 Schedule 1-A page 2 Part V Enhanced Deduction for Seniors which goes to 1040 line 13b. It is separate and in addition to the Standard Deduction or your Itemized Deductions on 1040 line 12e.  Turbo Tax automatically includes it. IRS Schedule 1-A https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-dft/f1040s1a--dft.pdf   Need to see it? https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-return/preview-turbotax-online-return-filing/L77WCkvnu_US_en_US?uid=m681fkhr   If you are not getting the senior deduction it is because Your date of birth in MY INFO shows that you were not 65 by the end of 2025 Your income is too high You are filing married filing separately  

The deduction is based on your date of birth in My Info. So it is included.    You will only see the Standard or Itemized deduction on ‌line 12e of your tax return. However, the Senior Deduction is reflected on line 13b . Line 13b includes multiple deductions Senior deduction No tax on tips No tax on Overtime No tax on car loan interest. It is reflected on Schedule 1A, Part V, Line 37 There's a $6,000 deduction for individuals older than 65, and a $12,000 deduction would apply to couples who qualify.    For more information, see Deductions for Seniors.
