Donating A Car to Charity: Tax Information

Upon pick-up of the vehicle, you receive a receipt that may be used to claim up to $500 as a charitable deduction on that year’s taxes.  If your vehicle sells for over $500, you will be notified within 30 days of the sale.  In that case, you will receive appropriate tax documents in the mail containing the actual gross sale price of the vehicle, the amount you will be able to claim as a charitable deduction.  (In some instances, this process may take up to 3 months from the date of pick-up.)  The donor will not receive an additional receipt unless the vehicle sells for over $500.
