IRA CHARITABLE ROLLOVER

What Is A Charitable IRA Rollover?

A charitable IRA is a special provision allowing donors age 70½ or older to exclude from taxable income certain transfers of IRA assets that are made directly to public charitable organizations, including Immigrant Legal Center. 

Generally, a qualified charitable distribution is an otherwise taxable distribution from an IRA plan or SIMPLE IRA owned by an individual who is age 70½ or over that is paid directly from the IRA to a qualified charity. 

How an IRA Charitable Rollover Works

  • Contact your IRA plan administrator to make a gift from your IRA to us.
  • Your IRA funds will be directly transferred to Immigrant Legal Center to help continue our important work.
  • Please note that IRA charitable rollover gifts do not qualify for a charitable deduction.

Benefits of An IRA Charitable Rollover

  • Avoid taxes on transfers of up to $100,000 from your IRA to Immigrant Legal Center.
  • May satisfy your required minimum distribution (RMD) for the year.
  • Reduce your taxable income, even if you do not itemize deductions.
  • Make a gift that is not subject to the deduction limits on charitable gifts.

Gifts of stock

What Is A gift of stock?

When you donate stock to charity, you’ll generally take a tax deduction for the full fair market value. And because you are donating stock, your contribution and tax deduction may instantly increase.

Stock gifts are donations of shares of stock that you own in a public company, private company, or mutual fund. 

Giving Stock In Three Simple Steps

  • Send your stocks via electronic transfer (where your broker transfers shares using Immigrant Legal Center’s DTC number). It is necessary for you to contact your broker to initiate the transfer.
  • Notify Immigrant Legal Center that you are making a gift of stock by emailing grants@immigrantlc.org.
  • Send your securities. Ask your broker to send via Raymond James and Associates.

benefits of giving stock

  • You can deduct the full market value of the stock
  • You may be able to reduce future capital gains
  • You can rebalance your portfolio
  • You can give more if you donate before you sell
