Questions
Is Form 8283 an appraisal?
No. Form 8283 is an IRS appraisal summary, not the appraisal itself. We do not file it for you. Your CPA files tax forms. We do not give tax advice.
Can Instant Screener support Form 8283?
No. Instant Screener is unsigned and not for tax filing. Donation conversations use the $399 case-review lane.
Can I use the $59 report on Form 8283?
No. The $59 records report is the wrong SKU for a deduction conversation. If a CPA asked for donation support, use $399 case review and confirm filing with that adviser.
Do you complete Form 8283 for me?
No. We do not file tax forms. Whether any appraiser declaration ever applies is a case-review question for your assignment and your tax adviser — not a promised product.
How much does a donation appraisal cost here?
$399 case review for a signed Fair Market Value report on one donated item. The $59 records report is the wrong SKU for a CPA donation file. Timing is confirmed after intake — not a rush product.
Is the $399 report a federal qualified appraisal?
No. $399 is case review for a signed Fair Market Value report. It is not an automatic federal qualified appraisal. Qualification depends on the facts and your tax adviser. We do not claim USPAP certification and we do not promise IRS acceptance.
When do people usually need a written appraisal for Form 8283?
Guides and current IRS instructions often discuss a written appraisal around noncash deductions over $5,000 for an item or group, and a signed appraisal dated no earlier than 60 days before the contribution. Confirm the current threshold and calendar with your CPA. We do not promise to hit your tax calendar.
