#396 Tzedaka and Tax Receipts I
Question
My child collected money for a tzedaka through their school: Am I allowed to take the money and send in a cheque so that I may get the tax receipt or is it stealing from the government?
Answer
Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit"a opinion is that when dealing with tax issues a main Halacha concern is if the questionable situation would be acceptable by existing tax laws. In this case a tax accountant or other such specialist should be first consulted.
