Deductions & credits

I would recommend reviewing your overall deductions to ensure you have selected either the itemized deductions or the standard deduction.

 

If you are itemizing, your charitable contribution should not show up on line 10b.

 

I recommend you review your input as follows to ensure the contributions are picked up correctly.

  1. Log back into TurboTax and select the Federal Taxes tab.
  2. Select Deductions & Credits
  3. Select I'll choose what I work on
  4. Scroll down to Charitable Donations  and review your input for Donations to Charity in 2020
  5. Select Done with Donations
  6. Scroll down to the bottom of the Deductions & Credits page and select Done with Deductions
  7. Continue through the screens until you see the screen titled We've Chosen....Deductions for You as shown in the picture below.

Standard vs Itemized

If the results say you are getting the Federal Itemized Deductions, line 10b should be blank as your charitable donations will be on Schedule A. 

 

If the results say you are getting the Standard Deduction, then you would see up to $300 of Cash Contributions on line 10b.
