Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.

The filer's explanations (Part III)
- Schedule J, Part I, Line 1a Housing allowance or residence for personal use
- THE MINISTERIAL HOUSING ALLOWANCE IS AVAILABLE TO THOSE WHO QUALIFY. THIS BENEFIT IS COMPUTED BY THE MINISTERS AND PROVIDED TO TRINITY INTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITY. THE BOARD APPROVES THE CALCULATION AND INFORMS THE MINISTERS OF THE ANNUAL ALLOWANCE. THE BENEFIT IS NONTAXABLE. NICHOLAS PERRIN RECEIVED A HOUSING ALLOWANCE WHICH WAS INCLUDED IN HIS SEVERANCE PAY AFTER FEBRUARY 2024. HIS HOUSING ALLOWANCE WAS $59,630.90. THE NEXT PRESIDENT, KEVIN KOMPELIEN, LIVED IN CALIFORNIA. WHEN HE WAS IN ILLINOIS, HE WAS PROVIDED WITH AN ON-CAMPUS RESIDENCE. HIS TAXABLE HOUSING ALLIANCE WAS $31,687.
