I gave 40,000$ to my brother abroad for his dwelling, any tax deduction is possible?

Tax deduction for what? Benefitting your family? Why? And why would anyone pay tax at all if we all could just shuffle money to our family members and get full tax deductions. I would move that money around 5 times before I end up with so many deductions that it adds up to my entire tax gross payment.

No, deductions only for RECOGNIZED charitable organizations. You can actually look that up quite quickly in the tax code.
yes my family but separate individual, grown up adult.
 
Sorry, I was not precise. I did not question your generosity (kudos to you) but why you expect a deduction when you benefit a family member. People do that all the time, obviously not to the tune of your contribution.
