titleOngoing US, Collegiate, & International Missionaries

When a Reliant missionary exits with a balance remaining in the MTD account they’re responsible for after all other expenses have been paid, the following policy will automatically apply toward the treatment of any remaining funds in the closed MTD account. The Exiting MTD Transfer policy is a different policy than the annual allowed MTD Transfer Request policy, and the one transfer per year rule does not apply to exiting transfers,

  1. The missionary may request an Exiting MTD Transfer
    1. The first $13,000 can be transferred to Reliant MTD and/or Project accounts based on the wishes of the missionary
      1. A maximum of $5,000 can be transferred to other MTD accounts
      2. A maximum of $8,000 can be transferred to project accounts
    2. The next $2,000 will be transferred to the Reliant Staff Ministries Fund (SMF)
    3. Any remaining amount after the Exiting MTD Transfer and the $2,000 will be transferred to the project fund most closely related to the missionary's ministry role. 
  2. If an Exiting MTD Transfer is not requested
    1. The first $2,000 will be transferred to the Reliant Staff Ministries Fund
    2. Any remaining amount after the $2,000 will be transferred to the project fund most closely related to the missionary's ministry role. 
    3. In the event If there is no project fund most closely related to the missionary's ministry role, the remaining funds will be fully transferred to the Reliant Staff Ministries Fund

($5,000)Ken Jones' request for MTD fund transfer to another Reliant staff MTD account, approved by Reliant management

Appeals that are submitted more than 3 months from the missionary's exit date will not be eligible for consideration.

  1. Will be transferring their ministry employment to another 501(c)(3) nonprofit ministry, mission agency, or church that is using a dedicated 100% support-based deputized fundraising model (like Reliant). 
  2. The exiting Reliant missionary will be responsible for raising 100% ministry support for their new role.
  3. Anticipates that there will be an MTD account balance remaining upon their exit from Reliant
