    Charity

    If I give my brother a car as a gift, can I write off the value?

    No but if it is worth over $14,000 you get the pleasure of paying tax on your gift.

      Sure. If your brother is a charity, that is.

        You need to start with the basics first. That is, in order for a charitable deduction, the organization has to be a QUALIFIED charitable organization.

          15K for 2018, and tax likely not due. Just need to file return.
