The Rev. Deb Oskin, EA, has been doing Clergy tax returns since 1989, when her husband left seminary to pastor a small rural congregation. She learned the tax problems and pitfalls associated with being married to a "hybrid employee" as a pastor's wife and later, as a tax professional.
Deb was ordained in 2004 and started her own tax practice specializing in clergy taxes in 2011, after 12 years with a big box company. Clergy clients make up 78% of her client base.
She's been teaching and presenting nationally on clergy taxation to clergy, congregational treasurers and administrators, and tax pros since 2004. Deb averages a dozen national presentations each year. Other than the fact that she really likes to talk, Deb does this because of her deep belief that clergy can devote more of their energy to ministry if they aren't stressed by tax debt.
Deb is an experienced presenter, and despite the complexity of the material, you'll find yourself laughing. Learn and enjoy!
