A credit is allowed for gifts to scholarship granting organizations
The document says “shall”Who acts: Secretary of the TreasuryHow: statuteSec. 70411 in the PDF
What the document says
“there shall be allowed as a credit against the tax imposed by this chapter for the taxable year an amount equal to the aggregate amount of qualified contributions made by the taxpayer during the taxable year.”
The section adds a new section 25F to subpart A of part IV of subchapter A of chapter 1 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 allowing an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States within the meaning of section 7701(a)(9) a credit equal to the total qualified contributions made in the taxable year.
What the document actually says
“there shall be allowed as a credit against the tax imposed by this chapter for the taxable year an amount equal to the aggregate amount of qualified contributions made by the taxpayer during the taxable year.”
That sentence, in plain words
A credit is given against tax for the year. It equals the total of the gifts made that year.
What this is about
The giver must be a citizen or resident. A credit cuts the tax owed dollar for dollar. Only certain gifts count.

How to Read This Page
The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, checked against the page
number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary,
not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the
quotation rather than replacing it.
