What is the difference between the permanent and a married diaconate?

There is no difference.

The permanent diaconate is not limited to married people.

Can a deacon become a priest?

In most Churches that have the threefold order (deacons, priests and bishops), like the Roman Catholic Church and the Anglican Churches, most deacons are ordained priests after one year being a deacon. However, some elect to remain as permanent deacons as this is where they believe their calling lies. Also, in the Roman Catholic Church married men are allowed to become deacons but are not, as yet, allowed to become priests (although some Catholic priests are now married - such as married Anglican priests who have moved to the Roman Catholic Church)> therefore, for married men the diaconate is the only order open to them and they remain deacons permanently.

What is the salary of a deacon?

The Bureau of Labor Statistics lumps all religious leaders into the category of "clergy." The average annual salary for all clergy in the United States, according to the BLS was $46,960 as of May 2009. Because of the nature of deacons' work, a deacon may be able to earn that much money annually, if not more.That depends on the local diocese. Most often, deacons get no pay and serve with no salary at all. However, if assigned full time to a particular ministry, salary is possible and would be consistent with that paid to a lay person in the same position, such as Director of Religious Education or Pastoral Associate. But this is the exception not the rule.
