Tax Deductible
Charitable Donations in 2007
New rules require a
written record for any donation
Keeping the receipts from your charitable
contributions just became more of a priority.
Starting January 2007, you will not be allowed to
deduct charitable contributions of any amount unless you have the proof.
What does this mean for you? Starting in 2007, each cash contribution you
make must be substantiated with a bank record, receipt, letter, or other
written communication from the donee organization that states the name of
the donee, the date the contribution was made, and the amount of the
contribution.
Without this substantiation, you will not be allowed to deduct the
contribution on your tax return.
