Reliant employees who believe that they may be eligible for the parsonage allowance and wish to request that Reliant designate a portion of their annual compensation as a parsonage allowance must submit a Parsonage Request Form  to the Missionary Resources Department. Reliant employees may request further information regarding the parsonage allowance from Missionary Resources. Any materials provided by Reliant are informational only, and should not be relied upon by the employee as the basis for claiming a parsonage allowance.
