I entered a new charity and was never asked about address or tax id # or other qualifying information.  

what form or how do I enter that information? on my tax forms?

It depends on the amount and type of the charitable donation, cash or non-cash.  It is your responsibility to prove the amount of your donations. If you give cash, check or charge payments on one day to one organization of $250 or more, you must have a receipt in your hands before filing your tax return. If not, you are not entitled to the deduction.

Deduction over $5,000. You must complete Section B of Form 8283 for each item or group of similar non-cash items or which you claim a deduction of over $5,000 except as provided must file Form 8283.

• IRS Publication 526

As you enter your charitable donations, you will be asked to supply this information if required based on your selections.
