We are a small church and the elder board has decided to dissolve the building fund. Are there any legal ramifications? What procedures need to be followed in order to do this?
Each contributor to the Fund has been asked if they want their money back upon dissolution, and each has declined. Can we transfer the money to the main checking? Do we need a letter from each contributor and do we need to file a form with the IRS in regards to this? Please help Thank you!
Answer
I believe all you need is the donor’s permission to transfer the monies to the general fund; however, I will contact a CPA and make for sure.

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 =)
