Question
Form 8283
When donating publicly traded stock, on Form 8283, Section A, Column (g) for Donor’s Cost, the instructions specifically state NOT to fill in this column if you are taking a deduction for FMV for stock held more than 12 months. However, in the worksheet on Schedule A if I leave this field blank I get an error; if I fill it in, it carries over to the 8283. I could override the 8283 field but wanted to check and see if there was a check box or something else I might be missing in this situation. Thanks, Dan
