SureFire not calculating correctly standard deductions when the taxpayer can be claimed by another person - Taxpayer can be claimed by another person, the check box on Main info sheet is selected showing taxpayer can be claimed by someone else. The standard deduction does not change on 1040.
If you can be claimed as a dependent by another taxpayer, your standard deduction for 2022 is limited to the greater of: (1) $1,150, or (2) your earned income plus $400 (but the total can't be more than the basic standard deduction for your filing status).
If taxpayer has an earned income that is the same or more than standard deduction the correct deduction would be as a single filing status non claimed by someone else standard deduction.
