how much can i deduct

By donating to Online Car Donation you still have the ability to deduct the full "Fair Market Value" of your vehicle (in most cases with running or repairable vehicles) because we make use of all functioning or repairable vehicles gifting to charities and individuals.

The allowable tax deductions for charitable contributions of cars, boats and airplanes (collectively referred to as "assets" IRS 4303) for which the claimed value exceeds $500 will depend how the asset is used by the recipient charity (Us). If Online Car Donation sells the asset without any significant intervening use or material improvement, your deduction is limited to the gross sales proceeds received by the charity. When Online Car Donation uses your vehicle donation in direct furtherance of our charitable purpose you as the the donor may deduct the "fair market value" of the asset. (According to the IRS, the donor, not the recipient charity, must determine the "fair market value" which the IRS describes as the price that a willing buyer and willing seller would agree upon if neither were pressured to do so.
