Junk a Car NJ through Donation to Charity

Donate a Junk Car NJ

Many people wonder if you can donate your car to a specific person, under privileged family or disabled veteran, and still be able to get a tax credit for it without it being an organization.

The answer is No. You only get a tax credit if you donate to a charity recognized by IRS as a tax-deductible charity. Not every charity organization qualifies for a deduction. The American Children’s Society is a 501 (c)(3) reputable charity for junking a car in New Jersey.

Giving a vehicle to an individual actually is a GIFT, not a donation, so therefore is not eligible for a tax deduction.

You can never donate directly to an individual or even a charity and direct the donation to go to a specific person and get a tax deduction. The deduction is available if you give to a recognized charity and only useful if you itemize.

The American Children’s Society will provide you with a tax deductible form 8283 or 1098C and a receipt that verifies who has picked up your vehicle.

Junk a car through donation has never been so easy and rewarding. This ensures that your vehicle is being used to help needy people. We are recognized on the IRS website and local attorney general’s office.
