Deductions & credits

If you made any entries under Deductions & Credits section,  "Charitable Donations"  return to that section and DELETE any cash entries you made there. 

 

Go through the review. The program will ask you for your charity donation again although it may not be until after the state return is finished, at the END of the FINAL REVIEW.  (After the "Tax Summary for 2021" screen)

 

Enter the amount up to 600 Married Filing Joint.

 

The Tax law allows a Taxpayer to claim Charity Donations on their Schedule A or, if using the Standard Deduction, on their 1040 line 12b as an addition to their Standard Deduction amount. 

 

This amount can be up to 600 for Married Filing Joint, or 300 for all others.
