It was the part that my church is lying about the situation. Apologies accepted.
The lady who found the very curled envelope handed it to me on January 26, 2024. So, it came back into my possession. I was just going to void it and add it back to my checking account. But later on that day, I gave it to the Business Office and told them I really wanted it to go the particular fundraiser. The lady who does the deposits was on vacation, delaying this a bit further. So, does the delivery date restart for 2024 on January 26, 2024?
I definitely filed a Schedule A that contained amounts for Medical, State taxes, charitable contributions as well as Charitable Goods (with Forms 8283).
I have learned a valuable lesson. I should have rewritten the check with a new check dated in 2024. In the future, I will give a check directly to the Business Office with instructions where to apply the charitable contribution.
