Hi. The software will not pick up information from box 14 of the W-2. You will need to continue past the W-2 screen (after reporting your W-2 information).
When you get to Box 14on the W-2, enter "Clergy Housing" followed by the amount. The allowance will automatically be classified as "other-not on the list above."
Continue through the screens until you see "Do any of these uncommon situations apply to this W-2" check the box for Religious employment, then select Continue.
On the following screen, choose You earned this income for clergy employment and select Continue
Enter your housing allowance in the Tell Us About your Clergy Housing screen.
Enter the lesser of
- Your qualified housing expenses actual expenses
- The fair rental value of your housing expenses
- Your housing or parsonage allowance
The software will calculate your Housing Allowance - Qualifying Expenses = Taxable Income
