How do I enter charitable donations from previous years that have not been claimed?

If you don't claim charitable donations in the current year, you can claim them for any of the next five years. If you have donations to carry forward, you must claim these before claiming donations made in the current year.

And here is how you do it. Deductions tab - Payment Profile - Donations Profile - Check -Unclaimed donation contributions carried forward from a previous tax return.
