What form in TurboTax shows how the standard deduction is calculated? The standard deduction now showing is twice the $24,800 I expected.

The Standard Deduction is a fixed amount as shown on the Federal Tax Return Form 1040 Line 12.

 

Standard deductions for 2020

• Single - $12,400 add $1,650 if age 65 or older
• Married Filing Separately - $12,400 add $1,300 if age 65 or older
• Married Filing Jointly - $24,800 add $1,300 for each spouse age 65 or older
• Head of Household - $18,650 add $1,650 if age 65 or older

If your itemized deduction on Schedule A are greater than the standard deduction for your filing status the itemized deductions will be used on Form 1040 Line 12.
