If the Reliant employee plans to reimburse expenses related to the work they performed and event or service for which they received an honorarium, then that honorarium should be made payable to Reliant and sent in for deposit into the MTD account. If the employee filled out a W9, by asking for the funds to be sent to Reliant the W9 will not cause the employee to receive a 1099, or if they do receive a 1099 they can request from the issuing organization that the 1099 be voided, since funds were sent to Reliant and not to them individually.

Example of this reimbursement scenario - A Reliant employee performed a wedding and reimbursed associated travel costs for performing that wedding through the MTD account he/she is responsible for with Reliant.  The Reliant employee received $300 for their services performing the wedding.  Since they reimbursed expenses for this ministry event using the MTD account, the $300 should be made payable to Reliant and turned in as a gift to the MTD account.
