Briefing Notes - on the payment of stipends and benefits, taxation and other related issues.
Introduction - for Circuit Stewards/Treasurers & District Stewards/Treasurers
This is the fifth edition of the Taxation Dictionary, a comprehensive set of guidance notes on tax issues first put together by my predecessor Jane Thomas. We shall endeavour to amend this document from time to time in the light of requests for additions and also for any changes indicated to us by the Inland Revenue.
At the front there are two indices, one categorised by type of expenditure with accompanying section coding, the other in alphabetical order with the section code as a cross-reference. The first index has embedded links which will take you to each of the sections that follow.
After you have downloaded the document initially, you may also wish to consider saving it to a suitable location on your computer for future reference without the need for further download time. The document may also be printed in full (though in view of the file size you may wish to consider double-sided printing if your printer has this capability). Alternatively the Dictionary may be sent as a Word attachment to anyone making an e-mail request to stipends@methodistchurch.org.uk.
Please note that wherever reference is made to ‘minister' this is to include all persons for whom a Form P11D must be completed and/or is in receipt of payment through the central stipends system.
If you have any queries please do not hesitate to raise them with us at the Benefits Section, and we shall do our best to answer them.
