Everyone receives the Standard Deduction on their tax return. Unless the itemized deductions entered on Schedule A are greater than the Standard Deduction for your filing status, then the itemized deductions will be used.
Standard deductions for 2023
Income is entered by clicking on Federal and then clicking on Wages & Income when using the online editions.
If you have income from self-employment then you need to be using the Premium online edition - https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/online/premium/
Did you file it yet? Everyone gets the Standard Deduction even if you don't have any income. What is the problem? Do you need to enter your income? What kind of income? If you don't have any income you probably don't have to file a tax return.
To enter a W2
Federal on left or top (Personal in Home & Business)
Click on Wages and Income tab
