$300 "above the line" charitable donation

[Money Doc]

Is the maximum deduction $600 on a joint return?

[IRonMaN]

$300 is the max.

No, $300 for MFJ, supposed to change in 2021 to $300 per taxpayer, I think, maybe.

Sorry @IRonMaN  did not see your reply.

No problem - I tend to blend in with the paneling 😁

Yep, the $600 for MFJ starts with the 2021 tax year.

But the deduction starting in 2021 is a BELOW the line deduction.

Should benefit most, if allowed in addition to standard deduction. I have not read the particulars of the 2021 deduction.
