What is Arizona’s Charitable Tax Credit?
Formerly known as the “Working Poor” tax credit, the Charitable Tax Credit allows Arizona taxpayers to claim a dollar-for-dollar credit when they make donations to qualifying charities like Ronald McDonald House Charities of Central and Northern Arizona.
When is the deadline to make a tax credit donation?
TAX DAY! Beginning with the 2016 tax year, contributions made to a Qualifying Charitable Organization (like RMHC CNAZ) that are made on or before April 15th may be applied to either the current or the preceding taxable year for your Arizona State tax return. In order for donations to qualify for your federal tax return, they must be made by December 31 of that tax year.
How much can I contribute?
To receive a dollar-for-dollar tax credit on your Arizona state taxes, donors can give a maximum of $400 for single taxpayers or heads of household and $800 for couples filing jointly.
I already donate to my child’s school. Can I claim this credit, too?
YES! There are four different qualified areas eligible for a tax credit, and you can claim each of them in the same tax year, up to your tax liability from that year:
- Qualified Charitable Organization (Ronald McDonald House Charities of Central and Northern Arizona is a qualified QCO)
- Qualified Foster Care Charitable Organization
- Public School
- School Tuition Organization
