Eligible organs include a kidney, liver, lung, pancreas, intestine, or bone marrow.

Who is affected: People who donate one of the listed organs while alive.
What changes: They can claim a refundable tax credit up to $5,000 for out-of-pocket costs and lost wages; reimbursed costs don’t count.
When: For the tax year in which the donation occurs.
