does the software reflect the new senior discount of $6000?

No. The current 2024 software has not been re-written for any of the newly passed tax law changes. The 2025 software that becomes available in mid to late November will include the new tax changes, but will require many updates in the early tax season.

If you are trying to use 2024 software for a 2025 estimate, you can try some "work arounds" like excluding $6000 of income in the amounts you enter.

You can do a "work around" for the $6000 deduction for people 65 or older by just entering $6000 less income.
