There is no A-003 on Form IT-558.

 

Gifts to Charity is entered on line 16 and 17 on the IT-196, included in the amount for New York Itemized Deductions and carried to IT-201.

 

Enter the amount on Form IT-196 Line 16. 

 

If that is not possible, and the cash contribution is not flowing to the state, enter the amount on the Federal Screen under Deductions & Credits. 

 

IF you are filing Married Filing Joint and claiming 600 as the Charitable Donation, please enter the 600 as "Items" rather than cash in Deductions and Credits to bypass an error. 

 

(NOTE: Some states allow you to Itemize Deductions when taking the Standard Deduction on the Federal Return. To include cash charitable donations as an Itemized Deduction on your STATE return, you can enter the donations as "Items" select "I'll value them, select "Other intangible property" enter the description as CASH, since it was and the amount as the value.)
