So a lot of organizations seem to be trying to evade taxes by claiming that they are only asking for a donation, when in reality the obligatory nature of the payment makes it a taxable fee.
Any tax lawyers on here?
We seem to get a lot of number one from most every where but very little of number two - anywhere.
I don't really mind the $3, but I do mind the "required donation" phrasing. If I recall correctly, donations are generally not taxable, but making a donation mandatory moves it from donation to fee, which is taxable.
