Standard Deduction 2024 Over 65. In total, a married couple 65 or older would have a standard deduction of $32,300. If you file as single or head of household, and you're either 65 or older or blind, you can claim an additional standard deduction of $1,950 for the 2024 tax year.
However, the exact amount of the deduction depends on filing status, age, income, and other individual circumstances. If you are both, you get double the additional deduction.
