Fraud Warning:

International students and scholars are frequently targeted by tax email and phone scams.

Governmental agencies will NEVER contact you by phone or email to demand an immediate payment or to warn you of a fine/tax.

All international students and scholars can use Sprintax to prepare their non-resident tax returns. Sprintax is a completely free and secure tool designed to:

  • Help non-residents determine if they need to prepare their taxes
  • Calculate an individual's tax liability, based on information entered
  • Complete the necessary federal forms so they can be printed, signed, and mailed
  • Prepare amendments, late filings, or corrections for the 2016 tax year, if necessary.

ISSS has also arranged several Tax Orientation and Clinics throughout February, March, and early April. At these sessions,you can learn how to use the Sprintax tool and receive individual assistance.
