TurboTax version for ministers

[JGpastor]

I am a pastor using TurboTax for the first time and wanting to know which version of TT I will need to use, with regard to having a housing allowance, and recording a mileage deduction related to my position as pastor.  It appears that the Deluxe Edition will work.  Is that correct?

TurboTax Deluxe should handle your situation with regard to the housing allowance, but you may not be able to deduct mileage if you are paid as a salary employee. If you need to upgrade because you have non-employee income, you will be given that option when you come to it in the program. After you enter your W-2 form, you will see a screen that says Let's check for uncommon situations and on that screen you will see an option that says Religious employment. You need to check that option to populate the options you need for your housing allowance and issues related to your work in the ministry.
