Why is my charitable deduction only showing $300 rather than $600? I am filing jointly.

I noticed TurboTax has worked on this issue the last couple of days because previously is was showing no contributions and no deduction.

The software has not yet been updated to the new values for a charitable contribution when using the Standard Deduction and filing as Married Filing Jointly.  There will be many updates before the 2021 tax return can be filed in late January so revisit this section again in a few weeks.
