1040 Line 16 - TurboTax accuracy?

[T-W-S]

Hi!  The tax that TurboTax enters on Line 16 of my Form 1040 doesn't match what I come up with when I use the IRS 2022 Tax Computation Worksheet for Line 16.  Specifically, TurboTax enters $25,804 on Line 16, but when I use the formula for my income level shown in the 2022 Tax Computation Worksheet, Section B ("Married filing jointly", which is my status), I get $25,826.80.  A difference of $22.80.  I can't figure out why.  Does anyone have an idea why this would be?  Should I be concerned about this, or am I just missing something?  Thanks very much to anyone who can help me!

One possiblity is that you have some capital gain income or qualifed dividends which would require a special calculation. If so you will see a qualified dividends and capital gain tax worksheet when you print your return that will show you how the tax is calculated.

Thanks so much ThomasM125!  I checked my return, and sure enough: the qualified dividends and capital gain tax worksheet clears up this mystery.  Thanks again!
