Moderators Gregory Matthews Posted December 4, 2013 Moderators Posted December 4, 2013 There are a couple of points to this that should be noted: 1) The IRS only gives a housing allowance to some clergy. I do not receive it and have not benefited from if for the past 19 years as a Federal employee. 2) Further, the IRS limits the clergy housing allowance to some clergy according to their job duties. Some clergy are not allowed to benefit from it. NOTE: I am not distinguishing between aspects of this that depend upon IRS rulings an aspects that depend upon the statute. Quote Gregory
