how to get the $6000 senior tax credit in turbo tax

[AnnetteB6 · Accepted solution]

There is nothing that you need to do other than enter your accurate date of birth.  The enhanced deduction is included automatically.

The additional senior deduction enacted due to the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) is not reported as part of the standard deduction on your tax return.  Instead, you will see it included on Form 1040 line 13b. 

Amounts shown on line 13b can be traced back to Schedule 1-A line 38 where the total Enhanced Deduction for Seniors is calculated.
