1099 or W2 for visiting clergy?

by Vicki
(Pembine, WI)

Our full time Pastor retired in July, we have been paying an Interim Pastor a monthly stipend to oversee business affairs but he rarely preaches. We have many visiting clergy in which we pay them per service and mileage. I will issue the Interim Pastor a W2, but I am unsure if those visiting clergy who have received more than $600 would receive a 1099 or a W2?

You state you give them income and reimburse for mileage:
just thought I'd mention to be sure to exclude the reimbursements.

by: Angie

Hi just wondered if interim pastors' wages have to be included on form 941 if they are receiving a 1099?

If you want to DIY your payroll, I highly recommend you look at using Gusto! It is very user friendly and their support is awesome! Plus they know how to set up and maintain payrolls for churches and nonprofit organizations.

Note: I am a "partner" of Gusto, but as I have told you before ... I never recommend anything that we or our clients have not tried and love =)
