Received housing allowance but no salary clergy income / already paid SS Medicare

[inhisharvest]

I am a commissioned missionary... My salary was NOT as a member of the clergy but I DID receive Clergy Housing how do I enter this? The forms tells me not to check the box religious income since I already had medicare and SS taken out of my salary.

If you have social security and medicare deducted from your W-2 and you also have a clergy housing allowance, check the box for religious wages under Special Circumstances after entering the W-2.  You will be asked about your housing allowance and a question about your SE tax obligation, there is a choice to "pay SE tax on housing allowance only" which will take your situation into account.
