Tax credits can be a complicated topic, and the Arizona Charitable Tax Credit is no exception. In fact, “Arizona Charitable Tax Credit” is actually an umbrella term that covers two separate tax credits with differing maximum allowable credit amounts. The state of Arizona also offers public and private school tax credits, among others.

There are so many details to understand: deadline dates, eligible charitable organizations, documentation requirements, maximum donation limits, etc. Fortunately, Phoenix Children’s has released “The 2019 Definitive Guide to the Arizona Charitable Tax Credit.” This article covers all of these topics, and more, including:

• The tax implications of tax credits compared with tax deductions
