Retirement tax questions
You will need to use the self-employed version if filing with turbotax online. Create your "small business" using occupation code 813000 -- this is a code for religious workers and will trigger questions about your housing allowance, qualified expenses, and self-employment tax. You may not have any 1099-MISC for income, but you may have other cash income such as from weddings and funerals that you would add here.
Note that because all your compensation is a tax-free housing allowance, you can't deduct work-related expenses such as supplies or mileage, due to the Deason rule.
If filing with Turbotax installed on your own computer, you can use the Deluxe version instead of Home & Business, but you still need to create a schedule C business with code 813000.
