None of the above options are correct.

If you are filing your tax return as an individual, you will need to itemize your taxes if the sum of your deductible expenses exceeds the standard deduction set by the IRS. The standard deduction for the 2020 tax year is $12,400 for single individuals. Therefore, if your deductible expenses, including deductible contributions, are less than $12,400, it would be more beneficial to take the standard deduction rather than itemizing your deductions.

Apologies for the confusion. The correct answer would be:

- If the sum of your deductible contributions exceeds $300.

Filing as an individual, you would need to itemize your taxes if your deductible contributions (which include charitable donations) exceed $300. Itemizing your taxes allows you to claim deductions for specific expenses, including charitable contributions, rather than taking the standard deduction.
