Where can I confirm that TurboTax has included my Senior Discount as a deduction?? It does not show up under Deduction Breakdown.

I qualify for the discount based on all of the qualification parameters, but I don't see where the discount has been applied on my tax return.

TurboTax automatically calculates the additional senior deduction based on your date of birth and your income. You will see it on Schedule 1a, line 13b of your 1040 form. There is nothing extra that you need to do. 

 

Taxpayers who are 65 and older may qualify for the additional deduction of $6,000 ($12,000 for MFJ).  To be eligible for the additional deduction, you must meet the eligibility criteria below:

  1. Be 65 or older by December 31, 2025
  2. File Married filing Jointly if married
  3. Modified adjusted gross income under $75,000 ($150,000 for MFJ).  The deduction phases out for taxpayers above this income

Review the TurboTax articles Tax Counseling for Seniors and the IRS Fact Sheet Deductions for Seniors for more information.
