Where in the process does the additional $6000 senior tax credit get processed?

The software is only showing a $33,100 deduction for my wife and I. Our income is way below the phaseout threshold

It is automatic based on your age.   It is not part of your Standard Deduction. The new Senior Deduction is separate and in addition to the Standard Deduction or your Itemized Deductions on 1040 line 12e. The 6,000/12,000 senior deduction will be calculated on 1040 Schedule 1-A page 2 Part V Enhanced Deduction for Seniors which goes to 1040 line 13b. Turbo Tax automatically includes it if you qualify.   If you are married you have to file a Joint return.

It depends. First be sure you have the correct birth date for each spouse. Next you can preview your tax return because it's not part of the standard deduction. It is a separate deduction from income and not a credit.
