Per IRS, clergy 's housing allowance is not taxable and therefore not subject to income tax.  However, the housing allowance is subject to self-employment tax.  Because it is a tax-free housing allowance, you cannot deduct work-related expenses such as supplies or mileage, due to the Deason rule.

To enter your housing allowance in TurboTax Deluxe online version, go to:

• Sign in to your account and select Pick up where you left off
• Right upper corner, in the search box, type in “business code”, then Enter
• On-screen, “ Did you have any self-employment income or expenses?” select Yes 
• Follow prompts
• On-screen, “Let’s get income for clergy”, select Additional income then Continue
• Continue to go through more step-by-step interview questions related to clergy
• On-screen, “Let’s look up your business code”, enter 813000 
• Next screen, Clergy and Recognized Religious Sects, select I need to pay self-employment tax on this income, follow prompts to enter information

The first step in either version of TurboTax is to add or edit a Schedule C business.

In TurboTax Desktop, use the Find box in the header and search for "schedule c" and jump to the start of that section.

Then start on Step 3 of this post: <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/3320424">https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/3320424</a> and follow to the end.

If you haven't already entered Form 1099-MISC, enter it now. Select the Schedule C business you just set up. TurboTax will link the 1099-MISC income with that business.
