Description

Charitable giving can provide significant income and estate tax advantages while also satisfying charitable intent. To ensure these advantages for clients, tax counsel and advisers must have a complete understanding of the legal framework and tax rules applicable to charitable giving vehicles, reporting, and deductions.

For high net worth individuals, planned charitable giving is an essential tax planning tool. Under current tax law, a number of planning and giving strategies are available such as the use of qualified charitable distributions, non-cash gifting and other gifting methods for purposes of tax planning.

Listen as our panel discusses income tax charitable deduction rules under current tax law, substantiation and reporting requirements, donor obligations, contemporaneous written acknowledgments and disclosures, and other key items that taxpayers must consider.
