Get your taxes done using TurboTax

If you itemize deductions, you may be able to deduct the membership as a charitable contribution. For more information, see Membership fees or dues on page 4 of IRS Pub 526, Charitable Contributions.

To enter charitable contributions:

  • Open (continue) your return in TurboTax Online. (If your return isn't open, you'll need to sign in, click Take me to my return, then click Pick up where I left off.)
  • Click My Account (top right of your screen).
  • Select Tools.
  • In the pop-up window, select Topic Search.
  • In the search bar, type donations.
  • In the results box, highlight donations, then click GO.
  • You'll land on the Donations to Charity page. Click Yes.
  • Follow the onscreen instructions. During the interview, you'll be able to indicate the name of the charity, then enter your cash donation. (Click the screenshots below for examples.)


Note: If using the TurboTax CD/Download software, you'll use the Find function (instead of "My Account") to search for the topic.
