Tips for Deducting Charitable Contributions on your tax return:
Charitable contributions made to qualified organizations may help lower your tax bill. The IRS has put together the following eight tips to help ensure your contributions pay off on your tax return.
If your goal is a legitimate tax deduction, then you must be giving to a qualified organization. Also, you cannot deduct contributions made to specific individuals, political organizations and candidates. See IRS Publication 526, Charitable Contributions, for rules on what constitutes a qualified organization. Make sure you check the list.
To deduct a charitable contribution, you must file Form 1040 and itemize deductions on Schedule A. You cannot filed 1040 EZ
If you receive a benefit because of your contribution such as merchandise, tickets to a ball game or other goods and services, then you can deduct only the amount that exceeds the fair market value of the benefit received.
Donations of stock or other non-cash property are usually valued at the fair market value of the property. Clothing and household items must generally be in good used condition or better to be deductible. Special rules apply to vehicle donations.
Fair market value is generally the price at which property would change hands between a willing buyer and a willing seller, neither having to buy or sell, and both having reasonable knowledge of all the relevant facts. Get appraisals if you need too.
Regardless of the amount, to deduct a contribution of cash, check, or other monetary gift, you must maintain a bank record, payroll deduction records or a written communication from the organization containing the name of the organization, the date of the contribution and amount of the contribution. For text message donations, a telephone bill will meet the record-keeping requirement if it shows the name of the receiving organization, the date of the contribution, and the amount given.
To claim a deduction for contributions of cash or property equaling $250 or more you must have a bank record, payroll deduction records or a written acknowledgment from the qualified organization showing the amount of the cash and a description of any property contributed, and whether the organization provided any goods or services in exchange for the gift. One document may satisfy both the written communication requirement for monetary gifts and the written acknowledgment requirement for all contributions of $250 or more. If your total deduction for all Non-cash contributions for the year is over $500, you must complete and attach IRS Form 8283, Non-cash Charitable Contributions, to your return.
Taxpayers donating an item or a group of similar items valued at more than $5,000 must also complete Section B of Form 8283, which generally requires an appraisal by a qualified appraiser.

How we work your case to immediately resolve your IRS matter and help settle back taxes:
1. We immediately send a power of attorney to the IRS letting them know we are now your tax representative. You will never have to speak to the IRS.
2. We will make sure your tax returns are filed and current. If your tax returns are not up to date, IRS will refuse to work your case. This is leverage that the IRS uses to get you compliant. Lost tax records, no problem. We can pull tax transcripts, file and prepare your tax returns within days.
3. IRS requires a current financial statement. We will secure a required 433-F (IRS financial statement), verify the income and expenses and work out a settlement agreement. IRS will require a closing settlement method for each case.
4. IRS Settlement agreements/programs can be in different forms:
a. Hardship Settlements. Cases usually go into a 3 year suspended status because of an inability to pay. This is also called currently noncollectable. Your case will go into a hardship status because you do not have the income coming in to meet your current expenses. The IRS will use the National Standards Program to assess hardship.
b. Payment Agreements. Cases can be closed with agreed upon monthly installment payments to the IRS. We will review the different programs IRS uses for the lowest possible amount required.
c. Offer in Compromise/IRS Settlements. There are three types of OICs:
1. Doubt as to Collectibility – Doubt exists that the taxpayer could ever pay the full amount of tax liability owed within the remainder of the statutory period for collection.
2. Doubt as to Liability – A legitimate doubt exists that the assessed tax liability is correct.
3. Effective Tax Administration – There is no doubt that the tax is correct and there is potential to collect the full amount of the tax owed, but an exceptional circumstance exists.
