Almanacers,

One of clients donated around $3,000 FMV worth of noncash items to goodwill and a $3,000 FMV item to its church. I know if non cash donations exceed $5,000 then part 2 of the 8283 will need to be filled out and an appraisal may be needed.

However because these donations are to two different locations, can we avoid filling out part 2 of the 8283 or once any group of items exceed $5,000, the part 2 will need to be filled out.

Please advise.
