Thanks for the reply. One follow-up question: If we just made one gift which we are splitting, would it really be listed on the top AND bottom of schedule A?
The end result in this case would be listing the same gift twice which would double the amounts in part 4 of schedule A, this does not seem right. It seems the top table is for gifts I make which are being split and the bottom table is for other, separate gifts that my spouse has made which are also being split. The heading for the bottom table is: "Gifts made by spouse—complete only if you are splitting gifts with your spouse and spouse also made gifts." This is not my situation, there is just ONE gift that we are splitting. Let me know if that clarifies my question.
