Depends on how you file.  If you are age 65 or older, you may increase your standard deduction by $1,600 if you file Single or Head of Household. If you are Married Filing Jointly and you OR your spouse is 65 or older, you may increase your standard deduction by $1,300 for each tax filer over 65.

Thank you for the answer.  Was reviewing my return & discovered an additional credit of $2600 on line 8; could not easily find answer in turbotax
