Sharing Donation Receipts
IRD approved donation receipts are automatically generated from Kindo, for any item that the school has marked as a donation. Donation receipts will only be issued for items that the school has nominated as a 'donation'. Please ensure your Account Holder name is correct before paying any donations.
Sharing receipts: married couples, civil unions and de facto relationships
If you have a spouse, civil
union partner, or a de facto partner who is eligible to make a claim, they can
claim the balance of your donation up to the relevant maximum.
This applies
whether the receipt is in one person's name or in joint names.
If you do share your receipts
with your spouse/partner you'll need to advise us of their details when you
make your claim.
Maximum donation tax credits are
based on individual claims. If one partner has donated more than the maximum
amount, their partner can claim the balance (up to their maximum amount).
For Example: Mary and John have donated $50,000 to their child's school for the tax year ending 31 March 2024.The receipt was issued in both names.Mary's taxable income is $40,000 so she can only claim a maximum of $40,000. The remainder of the donation can be claimed by John.John's taxable income is more than $10,000 so he can claim the donation tax credit for the remaining $10,000.
