By: Dan Goldie “I am hopeful that this provision will be extended for at least another year,” said Dan Goldie, President of Dan Goldie Financial Services. “The ability to donate to charity directly from an IRA without paying tax on the distribution has been a benefit to the charitable community and to retirees who are philanthropically inclined. Charities across the country may suffer reduced donations at a time when gifting is already under pressure, if the provision is not extended.” There are concerns in Washington about the budget deficit, which could derail the provision from being extended. Many are hopeful of extension however, because the provision does not cost very much and provides significant benefits to society. Since the provision was first enacted in 2006, Congress estimates that it has cost the Treasury about $50 million while generating approximately $140 million in additional charitable donations. Mr. Goldie said, “There are other ways the Treasury can increase revenue that would not hurt the charitable community. This has also become a useful method of estate planning for older individuals looking for estate and tax benefits. I see this provision as a win-win for all involved.” In addition to the extension of the current provision, there is talk by some lawmakers of expanding the tax benefits to possibly include a broader range of charitable vehicles such as Charitable Remainder Trusts, and a reduction in the qualification age from 70 1/2 to 59 1/2.
