About the Course

Introduction

This webinar will review the revisions made to charitable contribution deductions by the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA). Our panel of authoritative tax veterans will discuss the new contribution limits and offer planning strategies to maximize tax deductions for philanthropic taxpayers.

Description

Charitable giving is an area that was significantly impacted by OBBBA. Both itemizers and non-itemizers are affected, as are high-income taxpayers and all others. For itemizers, a 0.5% floor is applied to charitable contributions. Only amounts donated above .5% of a taxpayer's adjusted gross income (AGI) are deductible. Taxpayers in the highest income bracket, 37%, were affected the most. The 0.5% reduction, coupled with the 2/37th limitation on itemized deductions under OBBBA, effectively reduces these deductions by an additional 2%. Faring better, non-itemizers are now entitled to a $1,000 above-the-line deduction for cash contributions, while taxpayers filing a joint return can deduct $2,000. 

In addition to these changes, the Act made the 60% AGI limitation for charitable contributions permanent. 

There are strategies taxpayers can implement to maximize the tax benefits of making charitable contributions. Taxpayers and their advisers need to understand the modifications OBBBA made to deductible donations and how to mitigate their impact. 

Listen as our panel of federal income tax professionals explains OBBBA's impact on charitable deductions.
