Administration|Church Compensation

The tax process always provides questions. As a small church you might be wondering: Do you need a W-2 if the pastor is the only paid employee? Do you have to complete the form 941? Can the minister take 100% of his income as housing? How does a small church of 100 or less differ from the large church in tax issues? Join Lee Wright for a session on taxes for small churches that will answer these questions and more!
