Tax Information
F-1 and J-1 international students and scholars who were present in the U.S. during any portion of the past calendar year are required to file taxes. This is true whether or not you worked in the U.S., gained income in the U.S.,or received a scholarship during the past calendar year.
Please keep in mind you must have a Social Security number or a Tax ID number to file tax forms in the U.S.
- If you were in the U.S. during the past calendar year you will need to file form 8843
It is the student's responsibility to meet their tax obligations and do so accurately. Please consult the U.S. Internal Revenue Service, local and state tax agencies and tax professionals for advice and guidance regarding your individual tax situations. International Student Services staff cannot assist you since we are not trained tax preparers or advisors.
