charitable contributions

[RMP]

Can a client who is not itemizing use a cash charitable contribution for their 2025 taxes.  If so, where do we input that information?

No, at least number 4

Yes, but there doesn't seem to be a way to enter it in Proconnect. It's an adjustment to income (above-the-line). For mid-range givers, it can reduce income up to $2K, so it's a significant adjustment; so this is a big problem for anyone eligible for it. I will attempt to reach someone when they're open again.

@4bearants 

You are missing the point that this does NOT apply until the  2026 tax returns.

But go ahead and call.  Maybe support can help you....

Yeah, I agree that it is a really big problem for someone deducting it a year earlier than allowed by law.

As a side note, does anybody read anything between the original post and their own post?

AND... if they read, do they comprehend?  OR.... do they click on the link that discusses the situation and likely answers the question?
