Just as your business/organization taxes are separate from your personal taxes, your donations are separate as well. However, if your LLC taxes are filed under your personal taxes, you are limited to donate only under that tax return. Only one dollar-for-dollar donation credit can be claimed per Georgia state tax filing.

​

The Law Enforcement Tax Credit is not limited as one credit per person. As long as your business taxes are filed separately from your personal taxes, you can register for the tax credit and make a donation from both yourself, and your business.
