I cannot see the extra tax deductions for seniors, the $2000 and the $6000. The program keeps referring to the Standard deduction, $21,750?

I am referring to the online Turbotax program.

[KrisD15]

The Standard Deduction for
Single or Married Filing Separately is 15,750
Head of Household is 23,675
Married Filing Jointly is 31,500

Add 2,000 for 65 and older, or blind when filing Single, MFS or HoH

If filing Married Filing Jointly add 1,600 for each spouse Blind or “65 or older”
OR
Add 3,200 for each spouse Blind AND “65 or older” (MFJ)

For Tax Years 2025 through 2028, there is an additional 6,000 deduction for seniors. 
TurboTax makes this calculation automatically and lists the “Additional Deduction” on the new Schedule 1-A which flows to your 1040 line 13b.

It is NOT added to your Standard Deduction.

If you are filing as Married Filing Separately you are not eligible for the deduction.  If you are Single and your AGI is over $150,000 or Married Filing Jointly and your AGI is over $250,000 you are not eligible for the deduction.

If you are age 65 or older and meet the requirement, the additional deduction is automatically added on your federal tax return.

Standard deductions for 2025

Single - $15.750 add $2,000 if age 65 or older
Married Filing Separately - $15,750 add $1,600 if age 65 or older
Married Filing Jointly - $31,500 add $1,600 for each spouse age 65 or older
Head of Household - $23,625 add $2,000 if age 65 or older

New Bonus Standard Deduction (OBBB):
An additional $6,000 deduction for taxpayers 65 and older.
This is per eligible individual, meaning a married couple both over 65 could get $12,000.
Important: This bonus deduction is temporary, lasting from 2025 through 2028.
Income limitations: It phases out for taxpayers with modified adjusted gross income over $75,000 for single filers and $150,000 for joint filers.

The amount is calculated on Schedule 1-A, Part V, with that amount flowing to Form 1040 Line 13b
