Maximize your tax deduction by donating to LTC!
Starting in 2026, the IRS is rolling out new rules for charitable deductions—think of it as a gentle nudge to keep giving, with a tiny “but first…” attached.
The Itemizer Floor
If you itemize, your charitable deductions only count after you pass the 0.5% AGI floor. For an AGI of $100,000, that floor is $500. It’s like a cover charge for generosity.
Example: You donate $1,200 over the year. Deductible amount = $1,200 − $500 = $700.
Monthly Donations Count as One Big Happy Pile
Whether you give once a year or twelve times a year, the IRS looks at your total annual giving. So yes—your monthly donations add up, and no, you don’t have to jump the $500 floor every month like some kind of charitable hurdles race.
Standard Deduction Takers Get a Treat
If you don’t itemize, you can still deduct up to $1,000 (or $2,000 if married filing jointly) for cash gifts to qualified charities. It’s the IRS saying, “Fine, you win—here’s something.”

Quick Examples
- AGI $100,000, donate $400: No deduction (you didn’t clear the $500 floor).
- AGI $100,000, donate $2,000: Deduct $1,500.
- Standard deduction filer, donate $900: Deduct $900.
