No but it may be your method of reporting. If you entered your charitable donations by going to federal> deductions and credits>charitable donations, delete it from this section. This is not the way to claim the $300 charitable donation. instead, report it in the following manner after deleting the entry from charitable donations in the deductions and credit section.
- Log into Turbo Tax
- Federal>deductions and credits>review
- Now you should be in a page that summarizes your tax breaks. Go to the bottom of the screen and select wrap up tax breaks
- Scroll through the screens until you reach the page that informs you the Standard deduction is right for you.
- The very next page is where you will enter the amount for your charitable donation. Here you can enter an amount up to $300.
