Poor wording on my part.
The $5000 was designated in advance and in writing. It shows up on my W2 in box 14 labeled Housing.
Thanks for confirming
OK, good. In that case when you are asked about the amount of your parsonage or housing allowance, you enter the total of the FRV parsonage plus utilities plus designated HA. For your actual expenses, enter the total of the FRV parsonage, utilities, and your other qualified expenses ($5000 or less).
(Essentially when you have a parsonage, your "expenses" are equal to the costs.)
