Qualified Law Enforcement Donation Credit
O.C.G.A. § 48-7-29.25 allows a taxpayer to receive a tax credit for donations made to qualified law enforcement foundations. A qualified law enforcement foundation (“QLEF”) is designated as the sole local law enforcement foundation for a single local law enforcement unit and has been certified as such by the Commissioner following receipt of a properly completed application.
Taxpayer & Credit Information

The Department will not preapprove any qualified law enforcement donation credit where the Form IT-QLED-TP1 is submitted or filed in any other manner.
