I do not have Korean keyboard at this time and I hope it is OK to type in Engllish. I currenlty work at a church and am responsible for church payroll as well as financial statments.. As far as I know, this is not a citizenship matter but is a tax matter. Per IRS rule, allmost all ordained pastors or ministers are employees of church for income tax purposes and at the same time are treated as self-employed for social secuity tax purposes. That means you shuould have W2 from church each year. For more information, go to IRS website,forms and publications, and look for Publication 517. If you send me an email I will send you pdf copies. My email address is kyoskim2002@msn.com.
You may, if qualified, cqn get hosuing alllownace instead of salary. In general, housing allowance is not subject to income tax but subject to Self-employeement (Social Security) tax.
So many churches, pastors and even CPAs do these thiings wrong intentioanlly and unintentionally.
