Get your taxes done using TurboTax

You cannot deduct gifts to any individual, only to recognized charitable organizations.

Since you're the one who gave the gift, and it didn't exceed the $15,000 annual exclusion per person, you don't report it. 

 

If you exceeded the annual exclusion, you would file Form 709: United States Gift (and Generation-Skipping Transfer) Tax Return.
