You must file one or more Forms 8283 if the amount of your deduction for each noncash contribution is more than $500. You must also file Form 8283 if you have a group of similar items for which a total deduction of over $500 is claimed.
Although they aren't physical goods, contributions of stocks, real estate, and cryptocurrency are also considered in-kind donations because they involve the transfer of assets from an individual to your nonprofit.
Deducting stocks from your taxes is easy to do by filling out the right form (8283) or entering it in your tax preparation tool. You can use FreeWill to make a stock donation in 10 minutes or less.
Tax-Return Filing For a donation of publicly traded stock, you do not need an appraisal, but you do need to report the donation on Section A of Form 8283.
Use Form 709 to report: Transfers subject to the federal gift and certain generation-skipping transfer (GST) taxes. Allocation of the lifetime GST exemption to property transferred during the transferor's lifetime.
Providing Receipts As soon as the donation is in your brokerage account, send the donor a nonprofit stock acknowledgment letter that includes a tax receipt for it.
A gift of stock is a donation of property. If a charity receives a gift of publicly traded stock, the charity should send the donor an acknowledgement letter that describes the stock (i.e., “Thank you for your donation of 100 shares of XYZ Corporation”) but does not place a monetary value on the shares.
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.
Record the Donation For accounting purposes, publicly traded stock should be counted at the average of the high and low selling prices on the gift date (the date you receive it).
