  1. The amount was changed back a couple of years ago to 100% of tithing is deductable. The amount on the statement from the church is the amount that can be a legal deduction. When the amount was 75%, the amount on the EOY statement was 75% of what you had paid. It is now back up to 100% of what you paid and is reflected by showing the full amount.

  3. In Australia we can claim 100% of our tithing and fast offering on our tax return
  4. .The whole point of the post, wasn't about the 5 dollars. The money was irrelevant. I understand completely the principle of tithing which isn't about money, it's about faith. The point of the post was about whether or not tithing should be paid on money received which is technically a reimbursement of expenses. It's no different than if someone had·$20 petrol in their shed and you get the petrol from them and give them $20. They wouldn't pay tithing on the 20 because they we're just recovering what was already paid.
  5. Well that's a long winded answer that didn't seem to answer anything. As for the first part of your reply, my post was pretty self explanatory.
  6. So my wife has her adult son living with us, eating food, using water, using electricity, using gas, using the washing machine etc etc etc. For this he pays $50 per week. My wife then puts $5 into the bank to cover tithing on the $50 paid by her son. I cant seem to help her understand that this is not an increase in our income, it is simply her son paying for living expenses that we have already spent on food, water, gas, electricity etc etc etc. After all, I would like to see an adult pay less than $50 for everything he uses. Any idea on how to explain it. I do have a finance/accounting background but for some reason she still argues the point.
