Do I have ability to enter charitable donations throughout the year as a placeholder for 2017 return? I made a large donation today & would like to enter now while fresh

Yes...but be forewarned that many people are disgusted with the condition of the software this year.  You may be better off just keeping a spreadsheet and typing it in manually each year.

That being said, you can use ItsDeductible.  Requirement #1...your UserID login must be the same as your tax file UserID.  IF you create a tax file with a different UserID next year, you may not be able to import all your work (People in that situation can't do it this year and are greatly P.O'd).

You do have an ITsdeductible account with your current tax file UserID...you just may not know it....just go here and log in as if you've always had an itsdeductible account...an record what you have.  use the "Sign In" button.
