Ongoing Goals (Percent Current)
You have options to choose from when building out your support goal. Career Ministry workers should be able to select:
Month Effective
Please select the month that you wish for this support goal to take effect.
Salary
First, select how many hours you intend to work and input that in the first box.
(If you are changing hours, please submit a change form at this time.)
Next, select the annual salary you want to approve (you can see your max approval to the right)
Note: You can accept a lower salary than offered, but not one that is higher
If you have a FICA bonus, your offered salary has been cleaned up in Toolbox and works slightly differently.
Toolbox will add your FICA bonus to your salary in your final goal.
In the past, in Staffnet, we would offer you a salary that had salary and FICA combined, and Staffnet would subtract out FICA.
Now we offer you a salary before the FICA bonus, and we add the bonus on top of that, which is more logical and mirrors how FICA should work.
Please reach out to your liaison if you run into questions.
Subsidies
Let us know the MONTHLY amount that your sponsor church is committing
This will be assessed at a lower admin fee
Please let us know if you are getting a monthly subsidy from Reliant
If you are unsure, please enter 0 for now and reach out to your team liaison
If you know you are not, please enter 0
Benefits
Select your medical insurance option
NOTE: This will come out of your MTD account, NOT deducted from your monthly paycheck.
If none is needed, please select no medical insurance
NOTE: you will need to fill out a waiver form to show proof of other insurance coverage
Select your dental coverage
NOTE: This will come out of your MTD account each month, NOT deducted from your monthly paycheck.
Select your Retirement Fund Monthy Contribution
To the right, you will see your contribution max. This indicates how much will be matched to your selected amount.
NOTE: This match will come from your MTD account, NOT from Reliant Central Budget
NOTE: Selecting this/ changing this amount on toolbox DOES NOT change the amount in princicple.com. You will need to log into your retirement account on Principle and make the change there for this to take effect!
Expenses
Select the amount you want as a ministry expense bonus to show up in your paycheck.
Select the amount for your mobile phone to be paid out in your paycheck
Make an estimate on how much you plan to reimburse each month
NOTE: This is an estimate to ensure you are raising the amount of funds needed to cover this number each month

Fixed Goals (Percent Complete)
Fixed goals are built to calculate expenses for a resident/intern with predetermined start and end dates (e.g. 24 months). Residents/interns with fixed goals may see the following expense options. If you don't see an expense listed below, it's because it is not an offered or required expense for your program. (*Residents/interns under the Fixed Term Program Team will receive an Employment Parameters document at training that outlines their program details.)
