ARCHDIOCESE OF BALTIMORE
Allocation and Use of CathedraticumMany parishioners ask about the "Cathedraticum Tax." Cathedraticum is the term used for the funds each parish contributes to the Archdiocese to support the day-to-day operations of the Archdiocese. The amount of money is based on the parish's income. The tax rate is 6.5% on the first $100,000 of income, 12.5% on the second $100,000 of income, and 15.5% on income in excess of $200,000. There are some sources of income that are tax-exempt such as income to support tuition assistance, the Catholic Review, Archdiocesan Collections, and parish Evangelization support.
Our Lady of the Chesapeake owes $261,453 in past due Cathedraticum tax going back to July 1, 2016 through September 30, 2018.
The Archdiocese has posted a report on this year's projected cathedraticum income and expeneses covered by the funds. The link to this report is below:
