CHARITABLE TAX CREDIT INFORMATION
As you give, so shall you receive. Up to $400 in tax credits.
When you donate to
WHEAT, the ARIZONA CHARITABLE TAX
CREDIT allows you to receive a dollar-for-dollar tax credit if you itemize your
deductions on your Arizona state income tax return. You can receive a tax credit
of up to $400 when filing a joint tax return, or up to $200 when filing a single
tax return. Besides the tax credit, you’ll receive the added satisfaction of
knowing your money is going to help the working poor.
What does this mean?
It costs you nothing to donate to the anti-hunger education, advocacy & training
work of WHEAT! A tax credit reduces
your final tax liability. It comes right off the top of your state tax bill,
reducing the amount of money you will pay. So although your charitable
contributions increase, your tax liability is decreased by the same amount—up to
$400.
There is a simple form
(AZ Form 321) and easy to follow directions (AZ
Form 321 Instructions) that you must complete and include with your state
tax filing in order to receive that tax credit. Further information about the
ARIZONA CHARITABLE TAX CREDIT is found online at the Arizona Department Of
Revenue site -
AZTAXCREDIT.
The ARIZONA
CHARITABLE TAX CREDIT does not affect the tax credit available for private
school tuition and public school extra-curricular activities.
