Analysis and advice section

In the Analysis and Advice section, the program identifies me as 72 years old when in fact i will be 70 this year,. Is there a glitch in the calculations? should I be concerned about other calculations that are "automatic"?

Did you enter your date of birth correctly in the personal info section?

Analysis and advice section put my age as turning 72 in 2020 when I am only turning 70.  My age is entered correctly.

If you are filing a joint tax return with your spouse, you need to make sure the age reported is for you and not your spouse.

There is definitely an error in Turbotax. My birthdate is entered correctly; I will turn 71 in 2020; but the "Income Analysis" subsection of "Analysis and Advice" states that I will turn age 72 in 2020. (My wife is over 72 now, so this is not causing the confusion.)
