Yes, I know this. I've been doing my taxes as a minister for 20+ years.

TT correctly calculates my income for income tax but not for SE tax.

1. 1040 line 9 Total income on 1040: correctly calculated as W2 wages + excess allowance (=housing allowance - actual expenses) + a few bits and bobs (INT, DIV, honoraria). My actual housing expenses are correctly excluded.

2. Schedule SE line 2: incorrectly calculated as W2 wages + excess allowance + actual expenses + housing allowance. The amount on this line exceeds what it should be by exactly the amount of my housing allowance (which has already been included in the amount). I.e. My full housing allowance is included exactly twice.
