FAQ

The charitable donation tax credit in Canada helps reduce your taxable income. You may qualify for 15% to 29% of eligible charity donations made. You can accumulate deductions for multiple years and get a higher tax credit for amounts over $200.

A donation acknowledgment letter is a type of donor letter that you send to donors to document their charitable gifts and donations. Sometimes your donation receipt functions as a donor acknowledgement. However, that's not always the case. All donors deserve to be thanked, no matter the size of their gift.

The receipt can take a variety of written forms – letters, formal receipts, postcards, computer-generated forms, etc. It's important to remember that without a written acknowledgment, the donor cannot claim the tax deduction.

Additionally, receipts must contain the location of issue, the date and value of the donation. They should also include the value of any advantage, such as gifts received in exchange for the donation. Receipts must state that they are for official income tax purposes and must contain your full name and address.

The amount you can deduct for charitable contributions is generally limited to no more than 60% of your Minnesota adjusted gross income.

The same applies to stock gifts/donations. In this case, you should send a donation receipt comprising details such as the ticker symbol, the number of shares, and the donation date. Mentioning the value of the stock is not necessary since a nonprofit is not supposed to be assigning value to stocks or gifts.

Technically, if you do not have these records, the IRS can disallow your deduction. Practically, IRS auditors may allow some reconstruction of these expenses if it seems reasonable.
