Employees are required to earn $46,476 per year in order to be considered exempt employees in the State of California. Would housing allowance be added to wages in order to determine if the minister is considered an exempt employee?

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 =)
