Can a home equity loan be included in the housing allowance?

by Robert
(Plano, TX)

If the pastor already receives a HA that has been agreed upon by the board, and he wants to take out a home equity loan to do some remodels on the house, can the payments on that home equity loan also be included as income tax free income on top of the already existing HA?

Just assume that the extra HA due to the equity loan is approved by the board.

Thanks :)

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 =)
