Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 20
“1) During the tax year 2016, the value of LCEC church property was increased by $24,300 (from $265,800 to $290,100) according to the county assessment report. 2) A timing difference of ($1,825) between book and cash resulted from the following two fees: the attorney fee of $1,500 to help with the church minister's R-1 visa renewal and the R-1 visa renewal fee of $325. Both fees were booked in 2015 but cashed in 2016. 3) Redundant cash withdrawals of ($1,378.43) were made to IRS by error to cover the church minister's social security and medicare tax from July to November 2016. During this period, our church stopped paying the minister because his work visa renewal was pending. So that amount was not booked and should be credited back to the church.”
