Get your taxes done using TurboTax
I was finally able to submit my taxes. The problem wasn’t the form 8283. It was more so the way I was filing my Non-cash charitable deductions. Once I saw that everyone was reporting that the form was indeed available, i realized that my issue was that my charitable deductions were above $5,000. Not officially providing any tax advice here but I ended up having to modify the value of my goods to below $5000 which meant I had to devalue some of my items. The IRS now requires individuals to authenticate the value of their goods if above $5000, by having the document signed by the charity receiving the goods. Once I did this, my submissions both State and Federal were able to be filed electronically. Where before TurboTax was telling me I needed to have the document signed and mailed. My return has been sent and was also accepted by both State and federal that same day. . I’m still a bit disgruntled with TurboTax because their customer service was extremely lacking where I was supposed to get a call back from a supervisor but never did. Not good. With this horrible experience, I probably will not use TT next year. Good luck. I hope this helps someone.
