Standard Deduction 2024 Jointly Over 65. For 2023, she’ll get the regular standard deduction of $13,850, plus one additional standard deduction of $1,850 for being a single filer over age 65. The standard deduction for seniors over 65 is $27,300 for married couples filing jointly and $14,700 for single filers.

The additional standard deduction for age 65 is larger in the single filing status than the additional standard deduction per person for age 65 in married filing jointly. For couples who file jointly, that standard deduction will be $30,000 for 2025, an $800 jump from the year prior.
