Political donations deductions in oregon

WHERE DO I LIST MY OREGON RIGHT TO LIFE PAC DONATION?

When you are in the "State Taxes" section for Oregon, there is a screen titled "Political Contribution Credit" where you are able to enter the amount of your Oregon political contributions you are referring to. This screen will be seen after the "Adjustments Summary" screen.

It is not deductible for Federal.

Also, the maximum credit is $50 ($100 on a joint return).  And you can't take the credit if your AGI is over $100K ($200K joint).

Be careful with Oregon 2017 Form 40 as it handles the political contribution credit differently than 40N and 40P.  For the 40, make sure the qualifying political donations appear on line 26 and not on the Other Credits statement that feeds form OR-ASC which feeds the 40 on line 27.  You can't take a double credit even though TurboTax fails to flag a code 809 for 40 filers.

Why does my credit of $50 kick out an error when my AGI is less than 100K as an individual?

When you are in the Oregon State interview, there is a screen titled "Political Contribution Credit" where you are able to enter the amount of the Oregon political contribution you are referring to. This screen will be seen after the Adjustments Summary screen.

I understand it is not a Fredral credit. I entered the credit on the State tax form where it asked. When turbo tax did the check for errors it kicked the credit out because my AGI was to high.  Based on everything I can find the AGI for this credit is $100k. Mine is below the limit as a single person.

The AGI limit for a taxpayer filing single is $75,000.

Thank you very much for the updated information on AGI limits.

I appreciate your time.
