No.
Yes. The S-corp (as defined in section 1361 of the Internal Revenue Code) can either claim the credit against income taxes at the corporate level (income tax reported on an Arizona 120S corporate income tax return) or it may make an irrevocable election to pass the credit through to its individual shareholders. The S-corp must make a minimum aggregate contribution of $5,000 within their taxable year in order to pass the credit through to its shareholders.
LLCs that are taxed as S-corps for federal and state purposes are eligible to make a donation for a tax credit and pass the credit through to the individual shareholder. An LLC that is treated as a partnership can only pass the credit through to corporate partners not individual partners.
