Church contributions under IRS scrutiny in Pa. - Pittsburgh Tribune-Review

Church contributions under IRS scrutiny in Pa. - Pittsburgh Tribune-Review: "The days of dropping dollars into the collection basket at your church and then writing it off as a tax donation are over.

While some of the faithful believe the amount of money they give is between them and God, the government wants proof that the house of worship got all the donations taxpayers claim as a deduction on their returns. Personal checkbook registers or diaries are no longer good enough for the Internal Revenue Service."
