Please follow the below steps on how to split the charitable donation with your spouse:
Thank you for choosing TurboTax.
Thank you Guriraji for your response!
I did come across that, but was wondering if you could clarify the relationship between the two line items when you opt to manually enter the amounts you want to claim:
- Maximum Donation amount you can claim
- Donation amount you want to claim this year
Can Donation amount you want to claim this year be greater than what is listed as the maximum donation amount you can claim?
Thanks again for your insights.
Actually - I have just tested it - it can't be greater than.
So, I am still uncertain how I can split it using the override option.
The answer does not appear to apply if you are not working on line, but have purchased and downloaded Turbo tax on your computer. Purchased the disc from Staples.
Please advise, I would like to claim some charitable donations on my return and some on my spouses?
thank you
@randyfai If you are using EasyStep Mode, then enter your donation receipts, then go forward past the carry forward page, and you should get the option to split the credit.
If you are using Forms Mode, then override the line "Less: Amount claimed by your spouse or common law partner (if applicable)". This override will not affect your ability to NETFILE.
