# Housing or Parsonage Allowance

A housing or parsonage allowance may be considered qualifying income if there is documentation that it has been received for the most recent 12 months and the allowance is likely to continue for the next three years. The housing allowance should be added to income shown on application. 

Note: This requirement does not apply to military quarters’ allowance. For information on military housing.
