I’m not getting the $12,000 age deduction for myself and spouse but I did in past tax years. Has tax law for Virginia changed for 24. If not how do insure age is recognized.

If you or your spouse were born on or before Jan. 1, 1960, you may qualify to claim an age deduction of up to $12,000 each. The age deduction you may claim will depend upon your birth date, filing status, and income.
