Question:
Last year, I paid more maaser than I should have. Even more than 20% because I had to help my married son in the purchase of his apartment.
Should I carry over the surplus maaser to the current year(5786)?
Answer:
Hello,
If your intention when giving your son the money was that it be deducted toward maaser, then you can use the extra money toward next year's maaser.
Best wishes
