No, you will need to amend your 2021 tax return to take the additional tax deduction. Before you amend review your 2021 return to see whether or not you took the itemized deductions or the standard deductions. Your total itemized deductions would have to be greater than your standard deductions for it to be beneficial to amend your return to include additional tax deductions.
For single taxpayers and married individuals filing separately, the standard deduction rises to $12,550 for 2021, up $150, and for heads of households, the standard deduction will be $18,800 for the tax year 2021, up $150.
