| Forgot to claim deductible donation in 2002... Now what? While going through my "shoebox" for 2003, I found a receipt for a large non-cash donation in 2002 which I forgot to claim. I guess the receipt had accidentally stuck to the bottom :-[ Do I have any options now other than amending my 2002 return? Can I just claim this in 2003, but use the correct 2002 date when listing the donation in Form 8283? Should I fudge the date to 2003... And then if I get audited, show the IRS my 2002 return where I forgot to claim it? Thanks! (please reply to the group... I don't check my e-mail very often) << -------------------------------------------------> << The Charter and the Guidelines for submitting > << messages to this newsgroup are at www.asktax.org > << -------------------------------------------------> |
