Guidelines for Monetary Donations
To deduct any charitable donation of money, a taxpayer must have a bank
record or a written communication from the charity showing the name of the
charity and the date and amount of the contribution. A bank record includes
canceled checks, bank or credit union statements and credit card statements.
Bank or credit union statements should show the name of the charity and the
date and amount paid. Credit card statements should show the name of the
charity and the transaction posting date.
Donations of money include those made in cash or by check, electronic funds
transfer, credit card, and payroll deduction. For payroll deductions, the
taxpayer should retain a pay stub, Form W-2 wage statement or other document
furnished by the employer showing the total amount withheld for charity,
along with the pledge card showing the name of the charity.
Prior law allowed taxpayers to back up their donations of money with
personal bank registers, diaries or notes made around the time of the
donation. Those types of records are no longer sufficient.
This provision applies to contributions made in taxable years beginning
after Aug. 17, 2006. For taxpayers that file returns on a calendar-year
basis, including most individuals, the new provision applies to
contributions made beginning in 2007.
The new law does not change the prior-law requirement that a taxpayer get an
acknowledgement from a charity for each deductible donation (either money
or property) of $250 or more. However, one statement containing all of the
required information may meet the requirements of both provisions.
To help taxpayers plan their holiday-season and year-end donations, the IRS
offers the following additional reminders:
Contributions are deductible in the year made. Thus, donations charged to a
credit card before the end of the year count for 2006. This is true even if
the credit-card bill isn抰 paid until next year. Also, checks count for 2006
as long as they are mailed this year.
Check that the organization is qualified. Only donations to qualified
organizations are tax-deductible. IRS Publication 78, available online and
at many public libraries, lists most organizations that are qualified to
receive deductible contributions. The searchable online version can be found
on IRS.gov under, 揝earch for Charities.In addition, churches, synagogues
, temples, mosques and government agencies are eligible to receive
deductible donations, even though they often are not listed in Publication
78.
For individuals, only taxpayers who itemize their deductions on Schedule A
can claim a deduction for charitable contributions. This deduction is not
available to people who choose the standard deduction, including anyone who
files a short form (1040A or 1040EZ). A taxpayer will have a tax savings
only if the total itemized deductions (mortgage interest, charitable
contributions, state and local taxes, etc.) exceeds the standard deduction.
Use the 2006 Schedule A, available now on IRS.gov, to determine whether
itemizing is better than claiming the standard deduction.
For all donations of property, including clothing and household items, get
from the charity, if possible, a receipt that includes a description of the
donated property. If a donation is left at a charity抯 unattended drop site,
keep a written record of the donation that includes a description of the
property and its condition.
The deduction for a motor vehicle, boat or airplane donated to charity is
usually limited to the gross proceeds from its sale. This rule applies if
the claimed value of the vehicle is more than $500. Form 1098-C, or a
similar statement, must be provided to the donor by the organization and
attached to the donor抯 tax return. See IRS Publication 526, Charitable
Contributions, for more information
