My father passed away this past year. I am the executor of his estate. How do I get a copy of his donation history for tax purposes?

Contact the ward clerk of the ward he attended.

Talked to financial clerk. No information pulled up under her name. They declared her as passing.
In there a church office number a member could call?

How did she donate? if it was on-line, then it's possible she checked the box to not print her statement. If so, then her statement wouldn't be included in the PDF the ward got, but should still be able to pull it up via other means.

However, if she used an account that didn't have her MRN, the ward wouldn't have anything on it. You'd need to use her account to get the statement.

It's also possible the deceased member donated directly to Church headquarters. I would ask the Bishop of his ward about this and if that is the case, you should contact the Global Service Center for starters. You can get their contact number from your ward clerk. The GSC would also be able to help you get a copy of regular donations to the ward I would think.

I'm a Ward Clerk and this forum doesn't help with the subject. I'm still not able to pull up a deceased persons tithing for their family to do taxes.

Often when the "Forum doesn't help with the subject", it's because the members who are participating on the Forum at the current time, probably don't have personal experience with that particular situation. It's much more user-to-user help and discussion, and not any form of tech support. Did you try the suggestion in the post before yours, to try calling the GSC? You should have their number as ward clerk.

And if GSC does help resolve this, it's always helpful to return to the Forum and post that information. That way your experience can help others who come here looking for Forum help.

Was the deceased person a member of your ward? If so, look in LCR > Finance > Tithing declaration > Donor Statements > Generate a Statement > Previous Year > slide down and click on the box for the person you need the statement for > Generate Statement > click on and create a PDF of the statement > print the PDF

If the person was not a member of your ward, the family will need to approach the bishop of the ward the deceased lived in or contact the GSC.
