Hi Everyone,

I searched the resources and it doesn't appear that the 1,000 charitable donation deduction is able to be input in 2025 Lacerte like we could in 2021 when the allowance was 300. Is there anyone that has been able to find a work around for this?

The $1000 deduction doesn't begin until 2026.

You need to wait for the software release for Tax Year 2026 in 2027.
