I had the Standard Deduction on the first review of my taxes and and after fixing a couple of nits, the new reviewShowed no Standard Deduction.  How can I get it back?

    No standard deduction?   What do you see on line 12 of your Form 1040?

    Click on Tax Tools on the left side of the screen. Click on Tools. Click on View Tax Summary. Click on Preview my 1040 on the left side of the screen.

     

     

     

    Your standard deduction lowers your taxable income.  It is not a refund.  You will see your standard or itemized deduction amount on line 12 of your 2022 Form 1040.

    What exactly are the "nits" that you fixed? Please list them all, even if you think they're not significant, and be specific about what you changed, including exact amounts.


    Are you filing as married filing separately? If so, and your spouse is using itemized deductions, you do not get a standard deduction. You can enter itemized deductions if you have any.
