Webinar Description: The Senate Committee on Finance recently held a hearing on the federal tax treatment of charitable contributions (March 2022). A report released by the Joint Committee on Taxation (JCT) in anticipation of the hearing affects noncash contributions. The JCT expressed concerns about the valuation of noncash property and about the distributional effects of itemized vs. standard deduction, conservation easement deductions and the substantial growth of donor advised funds. Informed planned giving officers can better advise donors about changes that may be coming in tax law. During this session, we will educate attendees about policy concerns raised by the JCT, discuss the implications of potential tax policy changes, and consider ways planned giving officers can be better prepared to address changes.
