 The problem is, the trust may not follow under the guideline of a qualifying Charitable Organization to make charitable contributions. please review this IRS link, for further details. Also i suggest you delete your previous entries and start from scratch. Then:

 

  1. On the left had side of your program, go to tax tools>tools>topic search
  2. Type in 8283.  This will begin the process.  Answer each question carefully
  3. When it asks for the Organization, type in the name of the trust.  it will also ask for an address and other details about the organization that you contributed to.
  4. Be.fore you do this, review the IRS link to see if your trust falls under the guidelines of a Qualifying Charitable Organization.
