I choose to not claim several deductions to which I am entitled. E.g. Use of vehicle for business, Home office deduction, etc. I could easily defend these deductions, but claiming them would increase the odds of an audit. I don't want to waste my time and money dealing with an audit, so I pay a little more and decrease my odds of having one. I do not view this as a "donation".
