IRA Charitable Transfers

Individuals who are 70 1/2 or older can transfer up to $100,000 from their IRA directly to a public charity in 2008 and 2009 and exclude this distribution from income. However, no charitable contribution deduction will be allowed for this transfer.

Suppose, for example, you are 75 years old and have pledged $30,000 to your favorite charity this year. Thanks to this revived tax provision, you can tap your IRA to fulfill your pledge. For most taxpayers, taking $30,000 from a traditional IRA would generate $30,000 worth of taxable income. You might get a $30,000 tax deduction as an offset-----but you might not. Various limits on allowable charitable deductions and the phaseout of itemized deduction faced by high-bracket taxpayers may delay or devalue your tax deduction. What's more, taking $30,000 from your IRA would increase your AGI by $30,000; this increase could cause other tax benefits to be lost or reduced.

Because you are over age 70 1/2, however, you can have your IRA custodian send $30,000 to the charity. You won't get a tax deduction, but you also won't pick up extra income that could inflate your tax bill. What' more, after age 70 1/2 you must take minimum required distributions (MRDs) from your IRA, even if you don't need the money. If you make charitable contributions from your IRA this year, those donations can fulfill your MRD obligation without swelling your AGI.
