I have a similar problem on my 2022 return. When I try to explain it in the "Support Form" I get error on Submit.

I would greatly appreciate any help on the following:

Ufile reduced my 2022 Donations of $6049 to $745 Why??!!
My donations are way less than the allowable 75% of taxable income.
I have been using Ufile for several years and this never happened before.

The CRA Calculator for Charitable donations
is showing a total of: $2,952 For Fed and BC donations credit.

Would you kindly let me know, why the big reduction? How do I get to force the system to accept my actual donations? I do have about $500 Tax owing.

Ufile will claim donations only to the extent they are needed to reduce taxes payable to zero. The unused amount will be carried forward to next year's return to reduce taxes. This could be happening to you.

Yes, this is true however I do have tax owing of around $500, what gives?!

Hello askari,

The donations likely could not be used and were carried forward. Please check these reports  :

Charitable donations (Federal)

Charitable donations (Quebec)

Hey Geo123

 

Sorry which reports? Still not clear

 

I'm doing a simple tax return for a senior.  He has the following income sources for net income and owes taxes. Not sure how donations are not helping here.

T4RIF
T4A(OAS)
T4A(P)

Hello askari,

These reports are found in the Tax Return Tab (Tab 4)


Summary of carryforward amounts  < - - - HERE
T-slips summary p1
T-slips summary p2

thanks.  Yup all the donations are listed on schedule 9 even.  current donations and from the previous years which never got applied.  It looks like the current just gets added to the carried forward amounts and doesn't apply.  

Something doesn't make sense if i have income from oas, cpp and rif and I owe taxes, donations should help bring that value down.

I have the same problem.  Doing taxes for a senior and their donations are not being applied to the current year even though he owes money in income tax.  His donations are automatically carried over to next year.  I'd like to apply the taxes this year so he doesn't have to pay taxes.  It seems like whatever amount in donations I enter (eg. $50,000) doesn't make a difference.  It just gets carried over.   Anyone have any ideas?  Thanks.
