If you look at your form 1040 then the standard deduction that you are entitled to will appear on line 12e. It should be $15,750. Then the enhanced deduction for seniors will appear on line 13b.
Assuming that your income is below $75,000 then it will show $6000 on that line. If your income is over $75,000 then the amount on line 13b will show as less than $6,000 and if your income is over $175,000 then the amount of the enhanced deduction for seniors is reduced to zero.
Your Standard Deduction on 1040 line 12e should be 17,750 (15,750+2,000).
The new 6,000 Enhanced Senior Deduction is separate and on 1040 line 13b. What do you have on line 13b?
