The maximum QCO credit donation amount for 2023 will be:
$421 single, married filing separate or $841 head of household; married filing joint.

What is The Arizona Tax Credit? A nonrefundable individual/joint tax credit for voluntary cash contributions to a qualifying charitable organization (QCO)
Do I have to itemize to claim Charitable Tax Credits? No, you do not have to itemize deductions to claim a credit for contributions.
Can I take the Earned Income Tax Credit if I take the School Tax Credit? Yes, they are separate credits and you are allowed to take advantage of both.
How do I know Habitat qualifies for the credit under this program? Qualifying organizations are required to send the Department of Revenue a self-certification letter stating that they meet all qualifying criteria. The Department in turn publishes a list of self-certified organizations.
