There is a credit for the Elderly and Disabled which is so small that very few people benefit from it—-it has not been updated/increased by Congress for decades.

The response is BS. When I log-in to TT there is no sidebar with the "Tax Tools". Another screwup claim by TT.

If you are on the Desktop/CD version, you are correct. In that software I suggest you use the search and Jump to feature.

In the Online version there is a sidebar on the left hand side that does include the Tax Tools listing.
