Based on age alone, you are, he is not.  In order to claim the $6,000 senior bonus for tax year 2025, you must be 65 years old by the end of 2025.

TurboTax will automatically calculate it based on your date of birth and your income.  There is not a special section or box to check.  Just enter your correct information and TurboTax will take it from there.  If eligible you will find this on Schedule 1-A Part V and line 13b of your form 1040.
 

For Tax Year 2025 through 2028, seniors may claim an additional deduction of $6,000 per taxpayer over 65.  This is NOT a refundable credit.  This is a deduction of your income. 

• If your income is above $75,000 ($150,000 if Married filing jointly) the bonus deduction decreases by $.06 for every dollar over the relevant amount. 
• This deduction is available whether you itemize or take the standard deduction.
• If your filing status is married filing separately you are not eligible for this deduction.

This bonus deduction is ONLY for those over 65, it does not apply to those who are blind and under 65

You get the $6K if your adjusted gross income  (Form 1040-sr line 11b) is under $150,000, and it disappears at $250,000. The calculation is on Schedule 1-A, line 37. The amount plus any other deductions from Schedule 1-A appears on Form 1040-sr line 13c
