squawcreekrentals | Cash Donations - Deduction Question? |
I'm doing my taxes now, and I've calculated i've donated almost $10,000 in cash to the homeless in 2007. Did I need a receipt, to be able to claim this? How would I get a receipt from a homeless person? In all seriousness, do I really need a receipt? To put the donation in context, I made over $500,000 last year.
thnx |

if you look on your schedule A you will see that you need another tax form to report this deduction since it is over 500. I would have to say that it would be difficult to get the deduction without a receipt. Goodluck. |

If I made over 500G last year I would ask questions like this to my accountant instead of the people here.
If you want to know if you are pretty or pregnant though, this is the place to ask... |

In case you get auditted, yes you will need a receipt. If you are making such a large amount of money and donating that much as well, you may set off some bells and whistles at the good ole' IRS. Receipts would be the best way to prove that you gave this money to someone. Usually donations are for non-profit charitable organizations, not individual homeless people. |

Ask your CPA. |

You only need receipts if you're audited. Wanna wing it? Go for it. If I were preparing your return, though, I'd ask if you had receipts--wouldn't necessarily want to see them, just ask the question, particularly if you said these were cash donations to "recognized charities," which happens a lot. |

Yes, you need proof. When you make donations of any size, you keep receipts. |

Talk to your accountant, I think you need a receipt for anything over a $500 donation. |
