Ans: the correct option for the answer is Option C i.e. $24,400

As per law and according to 2019 tax rules the standard deduction for married filing joint return will get standard deduction for $ 24,400 and in law it is mentioned that there is an additional deduction of $1300 if an individual or a person filing return is a blind but here Brett and Lashana son is blind and they cant get deduction for it
