How do I enter my parsonage information if I didn't receive a W-2? (I'm a clergy member, and I allocated my whole salary to parsonage -- so I was not given a W-2)

To enter your parsonage allowance, follow these steps:

1. Select Pick up where you left off to open your return.
2. In the upper right corner of the program, search for business code,and then select the Jump to business code link in the search results.
3. Answer Yes when asked Did you have any self-employment income or expenses? If you land on the Your 2021 self-employed work summary screen, select Edit next to your clergy entry or Add another line of work if you haven't yet set it up.
4. Keep answering the questions, and eventually you'll get to the Let's get your clergy and religious sect info screen. Select I need to pay self-employment tax on this income and then select Continue.
5. On the next screen, you'll be able to enter your parsonage or housing allowance amount.
