Unmarried filer additional standard deduction

Does the TurboTax software include the additional 2020 standard deduction for unmarried filers of $1,650?  When choosing a standard deduction as a single filer it only used the $12,400.

You must be age 65 or older to take the extra deduction. If you are over this age and don't see it on your return, check your date of birth entry.
