Standard deductions calculations

turbo tax says - standard deductions are better. Where can I see the full calculations worksheet that shows this? I found Schedule A (lines 5-12), but not the rest or where it sums up the itemized deductions

Since you are on windows, just go to forms mode and see what the worksheet actually shows ---->

From the top ribbon, click/ hover "view"; from the drop down menu select "forms",  new window opens with two panes -- left shows all the forms/worksheets  in use and right pane shows the form/worksheet selected. Now select the schedule-A worksheet and see the details on the right hand pane, work through till you find what you are looking for.  When done, go to  step-by-step mode  -- view, "step-by-step" and you are back where you were

Do not make any changes/edits on the actual forms, make required changes on the underlying worksheet

thank you. I did fiond this, but as turbo tax is using the standard deductions, there is no Schedule A on the left list of forms.  I did find "Tax & Int Worksheet", but that shows only partial schedule A and does not show what my total for itemized deductions would be
