Health/Auto insurance- finded by the WT correct? (Not by the congregation?)
They also get a monthly sepdning account? Anyone know the dollar amount?
The congs pay the CO's expenses incurred during their visit?
This is extra $$ for the CO- if not reimbursed he would have to pay out of his allowance account?
My understanding is that: health/auto expenses - This is "billed" to the local congregations each year. The "suggested" contribution is $8 per publisher (I think that's the amount). It is generally passed as a local resolution each year. The local congregations also contribute an amount to the KHAA (the WTS captive insurance program) for liability and property insurance. That "suggested" contribution is also sent in the form of a per publisher amount but I don't remember what last year's was. housing & related expenses - paid by the local circuit expenses during the week - the PO is supposed to ask the CO to submit receipts for reimbursement. If not covered by the congregation, the CO can submit to Patterson for reimbursement. I've seen information posted here about the monthly stipend - its really not that much. I honestly think the CO change is more about reducing liability than it is about saving money, although there will be savings that should filter down to the congregations in the form of lower annual billings and lower housing related expenses.
