HR 2891 removes a restriction that blocks people from using the qualified charitable distribution tax benefit when donating IRA funds to a donor-advised fund. Currently, Americans age 70½ or older can transfer up to $105,000 per year directly from an IRA to most charities without counting that money as taxable income, but donor-advised funds are excluded from that option. This bill would extend the existing benefit to cover donor-advised funds.
The change would most directly affect Americans age 70½ and older who hold traditional IRAs and wish to give to charity through a donor-advised fund. Financial institutions and nonprofits that manage donor-advised funds, such as community foundations and large financial firms with charitable arms, would also be affected.
Donor-advised fund sponsors could receive more contributions through the IRA rollover channel, expanding the flow of charitable dollars into those accounts. People who do not have IRAs, are under age 70½, or do not use donor-advised funds would not be directly affected by this change.
