FAQ
Technically, donors don't need the substantiation until sometime before they file their personal tax returns for the year the gift was made. There are other ways to acknowledge a gift in addition to a written gift acknowledgment that is sent to the donor, whether via email or regular mail.
You can qualify for taking the charitable donation deduction without a receipt; however, you should provide a bank record (like a bank statement, credit card statement, or canceled check) or a payroll deduction record to claim the tax deduction.
While we recommend sending donation acknowledgment letters to all of your donors, you are legally obligated to send documentation to donors who have given a gift of $250 or more.
Getting a receipt every time you donate strengthens your tax records if you are audited. If you make a large donation and don't have (or can't find) the receipt, the donation will almost certainly be disallowed on audit. For this reason, it's best to set up a record-keeping system at the start of each year.
The receipt can take a variety of written forms – letters, formal receipts, postcards, computer-generated forms, etc. It's important to remember that without a written acknowledgment, the donor cannot claim the tax deduction.
