Deductions & credits
1) The money you put in the Donor advised fund is the only thing you put on your personal tax return. Who it went to afterward has little to nothing to do with yoru personal tax return.
2) Who actually runs the Donor advised fund? Is it something you created and run all on your own?
IF it's something you run all on your own (and not a sub-account thru somebody else's pre-established Donor fund, like a sub-account within the Fidelity Charitable gift fund), then you REALLY need local professional help on that. If it's ALL your own DAV, then anything that happens within the fund must be reported entirely separately from your individual tax return, and on tax forms TTX probably does not even have...like a form 990?
3) No, money dispersed from a Donor Advised fund does not enable you to take any personal tax credits or deductions on your personal tax return......you already received a deduction for the $$ you put into the Fund......what happens to the $$ that leave the fund are recorded by whoever is running the Fund, and posted somehow on whatever forms the Fund is required to generate and submit every year to the Govt (Form 990)....but these are not on your personal tax records.

A form 990 "might" be available in some of the Pro-series versions....but those are only run by actual tax pro's and is not covered by discussions in this community.
