End-of-Year Reminders
W-2 Forms
W-2 forms are due on January 31, 2022. We've posted box-by-box instructions on our
Completing W-2 Forms page. If you aren't familiar with imputing Long-Term Disability premiums (strongly recommended) and Group Term Life cost (as required by the IRS), please see the our
Insurance Plans and Taxes page.
Minimum Wage
Be sure to check for any change in minimum wage for your state or locality.
Ministerial Housing Allowance
The
Ministerial Housing Allowance must be formally designated by the congregation's leadership
before any expenses can be applied to it. Designating a 2022 Housing Allowance before the end of 2021 ensures that your minister(s) can take full advantage of it in the new calendar year. (Ministers, see our
housing allowance calculation form.)
December Schedule
UUA Offices are closed for the last two weeks of December. Members of the Church Staff Finances team will check regularly for time-sensitive emails.
Holiday Wishes
It has been another hard year on many fronts. We're grateful that you take the time to read Compensation and Staffing News each month. Thanks to each of you for helping ensure that your congregation is a faithful employer – faithful to the law and to our values.
May the season offer you what you need to restore your spirit, be it a chance to cook, to sing, to connect with friends and family, or simply to be. We'll see you in 2022!
Blessings,
Richard, Mary, Jim, William, Sarah, Linda, Gloria, Charissa, and Jan
