I am unable to choose "Itemized Deductions" - the program will only select Standard Deductions. When I look at Schedule A in form view, line 17 shows $33,857 (much more than the standard deduction of $27,700). When I look at the "Deductions & Credits" tab, there is no option to "Let Me Choose" what to walk through. I followed the instructions at this link (https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/tax-credits-deductions/change-standard-d...) and I have no option to "Change My Deduction". Thank you!

Are you Married Filing Separately?
If Yes, did you tell the program your spouse was taking the Standard Deduction?
If yes, you must file the same way as your spouse.
I am filing Jointly.
