FAQ
Each letter should include the following information: The donor's name. The full legal name of your organization. A declaration of your organization's tax-exempt status. Your organization's employer identification number. The date the gift was received. A description of the gift and the amount received.
If you donated a total (aggregate) amount of $500 or more in noncash donated property to charitable organizations or claim a deduction for donated property, use Form 8283 to report information about tax-deductible donations.
However, you should be able to provide a bank record (bank statement, credit card statement, canceled check or a payroll deduction record) to claim the tax deduction. Written records, like check registers or personal notations, from the donor aren't enough proof. The records should show the: Organization's name.
Not All Receipts are Created Equal. A proper receipt that counts as documentary evidence of a business expense in the eyes of the IRS must include: 1) the transaction amount; 2) the name of the vendor or place where the transaction took place; 3) the date the transaction took place, and; 4) the nature of the expense.
Generally, any nonprofit organization that promotes religious, literary, educational, scientific, humanitarian or other charitable causes will qualify. However, if the combined value of all property you donate is more than $500, you must prepare Form 8283 and attach it to your tax return.
Individuals, partnerships, and corporations file Form 8283 to report information about noncash charitable contributions when the amount of their deduction for all noncash gifts is more than $500.
As mentioned above, to claim a charitable donation, you need to itemize your deductions using Form 1040, Schedule A as part of your tax preparation. Schedule A reports your itemized deductions, including charitable contributions. Fill out this form carefully to ensure accurate information about your donations.
