should pastor's salary be marked as taxable or non-taxable under maintain item descriptions, tax options on version 11.1 ?
when i tried it as taxable it shows correctly on the w-2, when i tried it as non-taxable it does not show on the w-2 box 1...what am i missing? :?:

Most pastors are classified as employees by the IRS, this means that their salary is taxable. Why would you want to show it as non-taxable.
