[QUOTE="clutteredcloset49, post: 377028, member: 85"]This is good. You have proof to support your claim. According to the NOLO page anything over $5000. must have a written appraisal. You no longer have the book, and the university says they won't give you an appraisal because too much time has passed? I don't understand why she is limiting you to $500. I would think you could claim at least $4995 without a formal appraisal. I still think it has something to do with what they have to declare as donations. Maybe they only declared a $500. donation [URL]https://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/irs-recordkeeping-rules-property-donations.html[/URL] Do you have a good accountant/CPA? What do they say? Wonder if you should contact the head of the university.[/QUOTE]
