How do I enter a charitable donation of vacant land?

[Anonymous]

We donated property to Habitat for Humanity.  Property was vacant land that I received as a gift from my parents more than a decade earlier.  Recognized fair market value of the donation is $2,140.  We have a HUD-1 and donation receipt from Habitat for Humanity.  How do I enter this charitable donation in TurboTax?

You enter it as non-cash charitable contribution.  To do so in TurboTax, while in your return:

• Click on "Personal" tab (Home & Business Version) or Federal Taxes in others
  
• Click on Deductions & Credits
• Click on "I'll choose what I work on"
• Scroll down to "Charitable Donations"
• Select "Donations to Charity in 2018"
• On the "Lets enter your donations one at a time", enter the charity name and click on Add next to "Items"
• Indicate "I'll Value Them"
  
• Enter the details of your land donation
• For "Choose a category for this donation" Indicate "Real Property -not conservation property"
• Enter a Description, Value, and method of valuation
