How do I document my gift(s)?
Cash and/or non-cash gifts can be documented when you itemize your deductions through the IRS Form 1040, Line 37 and Schedule A or IS Form 1120, Line 19.
Am I required to submit a receipt with my documentation?
For contributions of $250.00 or more, "The federal income tax law requires that before cash or non-cash charitable contribution of $250.00 or more can be claimed as a tax deduction, the taxpayer must have written substantiation from the charitable organization acknowledging the donation."
When you itemize your deductions (IRS Form 1040, Line 37 and Schedule A or IRS Form 1120, Line 19) for gifts by direct deposit, cash, credit card, or check, IRS regulations do not stipulate that you have to attach a receipt to the return or report. However, we recommend you keep records of your donations should the IRS perform a general audit to substantiate the amount you claimed as a deduction.
How will the value of non-cash gifts be determined?
As required by federal income tax law, non-cash gifts will be issued a receipt for the fair-market value. The fair-market value is the price that the item would sell for on the open market, or the estimated cash value of the item.
