The Parochial Expenses of the Clergy

 

The parochial expenses of the clergy booklet gives guidelines to parochial clergy and PCC Treasurers about the reimbursement of expenses. If clergy do not claim all their expenses, or their expenses are not fully reimbursed, they are receiving less than their full stipend. PCCs should be committed to reimbursing clergy expenses in full.

The parochial expenses of the clergy booklet is available in print form by the clicking the links on the left hand side of this page. One link gives the full text, and others give access to the sections of the booklet separately. There is a separate link to the suggested claim form.

There is also a separate link to a guidance note about mileage rates which covers the implications for clergy if rates are used greater than those allowed tax-free by Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs, and also the tax rules for additional rates for passengers.

For more information regarding the booklet or the guidance note, please email info@c-of-e.org.uk.
