Is the idea of this to aggregate several years of donations until they are enough along with other factors to make sense to itemize? Last year we took the new Standard deduction, therefore we got no credit for our relatively small charitable donations, which were enough to help us prior to the tax law changes. Can I aggregate our charitable deductions across several years until I reach an amount of deduction above the standard? The instruction in the answer says to only add your 2019 charitable donations, but I am on the Charitable carryover screen and it suggests adding deductions from previous years.
