Why is standard deduction over $6,350

That is the correct amount for the Standard Deduction if you are single and  65 or older OR single and blind.  An additional $1550 is added to the basic Standard Deduction ($6350) for age-65 or older AND/OR blind.

I am so sorry you did not think my answer helpful.  How could I have better assisted you?  Are you not 65 or older or blind?
