Valuation Tool for Charitable Contributions is Gone!!

One of the most valuable help tools in TurboTax is the valuation tool for household items given to charity - like to the Salvation Army.  This is missing in the 2025 Home and Business software.  And....it looks like it is missing for new items in the 2024 software too.  I tried to compare 2024 to 2025, and the tool existed for items that I'd already entered, but ones didn't pull it up.

I hope I just can't find it and TT has not removed this functionality.  It's core to wanting to use the software.

This article will help you download any data you had in ItsDeductible (if used previously or during the year before it was shut down in October).

 

A FMV calculator has been added, but it does not have the same functionality as ItsDeductible.

I assume I can just sum up the values for everything in a box of (e.g.) clothes donated on given day and put that in as a single donation, correct?  (Clearly with the new FMV "calculator" I have to do all the math myself, but that's not hard, just tedious.)

While listed as "coming soon" in the software, users can currently use external donation value guides, the Goodwill Valuation Guide

or Salvation Army Thrift Stores

OMG.  This is a friggin disaster.  It will take me hours longer to complete our returns.  Why the hell would they delete this?
