Get your taxes done using TurboTax

If you override the charitable contributions amount, you won't be able to E-file. For this year, even if you don’t itemize, you may take a charitable deduction of up to $300 ($600 if married filing jointly) for cash contributions made in 2021 to qualified organizations. 

 

Here are some possible solutions so your tax return reflects the $600 charitable contribution:

  1. Make sure you compete the entire interview,
  2. Do a final review,
  3. Make sure you enter that the contribution was money, and
  4. Make sure you are claiming the standard deduction.
