Ministers are self-employed for Social Security tax purposes with respect to their ministerial services, even though most are treated as employees for federal income tax purposes. Self-employment tax is assessed on taxable compensation and nontaxable housing allowance/parsonage.
The IRS has ruled that clergy are self-employed for purposes of paying social security taxes. This means that they must pay both the employee and the employer share of social security tax under the Self-Employed Contribution Act (SECA).
If you have a clergy housing allowance: Generally, the housing allowance is reported in box 14 of the W-2 and is not included in boxes 1, 3 or 5. The fair rental value of a parsonage or the housing allowance can be excluded from income only for income tax purposes. No exclusion applies for self-employment tax purposes.
Your housing allowance is not reported on any tax document. If your housing allowance is reported in box 7, the church needs to issue a corrected 1099-MISC. The 1099-MISC should only report your taxable wages not including the housing allowance.
A minister's housing allowance (sometimes called a parsonage allowance or a rental allowance) is excludable from gross income for income tax purposes but not for self-employment tax purposes.
If you have clergy, minister, or missionary wages reported on a W-2 that are subject to self-employment taxes, but no FICA (Social Security and Medicare) taxes were withheld: From within your TaxAct® return (Online or Desktop) click Federal.
You must exclude any parsonage or housing allowance included in your retirement pay or any other retirement benefit received after retirement pursuant to a church plan as defined in section 414(e) of the Internal Revenue Code when computing your net earnings from self-employment.

Yes. Members of the clergy (ministers, members of a religious order, and Christian Science practitioners and readers) and religious workers (church employees) must pay self-employment tax (SE tax).
While they can be considered an employee of a church, for federal income tax purposes a pastor is considered self-employed by the IRS. Some pastors are considered independent contractors if they aren't affiliated with one specific church, like traveling evangelists.
