2025 Imputed Income Report Released
December 3, 2025
Section 79 of the Internal Revenue Code requires that employers calculate imputed income for employees who receive group term life insurance coverage in excess of $50,000. Employees who have this type of group term life insurance coverage are required to pay income taxes and employment taxes on the value of that insurance coverage in excess of $50,000.
We have done the calculations for you. 2025 Imputed Income Reports for group term life insurance provided by The Church Pension Fund (CPF) through Church Life Insurance Corporation (Church Life) valued at over $50,000 are now available in the My Admin Portal (MAP).
You can access the file for your institution by logging into MAP with your username and password. To access the 2025 Imputed Income Report for your group, click on “Reports” located in the top navigation bar. Then select “Diocesan Reports” and select “2025 Imputed Income Reports.”
