Recommending itemized deduction but when ireview it says standard deduction

If your itemized deductions in Schedule A are less than your standard deduction, it is more advantageous to opt for the standard deduction and TurboTax will do it for you.

In 2016, standard deductions are:

- $6,300 for Single or Married filing Separately

- $9,300 for Head of Household

- $12,600 for Married filing Jointly
