Deductions & credits

If you made cash donations up to $300, that is the amount that is recorded in Box10B. I am not sure what you mean by the maximum cash contribution allowed is $25 but Turbo Tax might be taking this from what you entered in the charitable contribution section in deductions and credits.  If this is the case, remove all your entries from federal>deductions and credits>charitable donations. Delete everything entered in this section and then go back a record up to a $300 cash donation for standard filers.

 

You may need to go to your forms:

  1. IF TT Online, go to tax tools>tools>delete a form>delete and charitable contribution worksheet in the forms.
  2. If using software, go to the forms mode>locate the charitable contribution worksheet 
  3. Locate it in your list of forms>select it>delete at the bottom

After this is done, go to federal>deductions and credits>scroll through each page until you reach a page informing you that the standard deduction is right for you. in the very next page is where you will enter up to $300 cash donation made.
