Tax notice
The Tax Office has issued a notice for international affiliates of the University.
All new international students, scholars, faculty members and other visitors who will receive any payments through the University payroll system -- for example, stipends, fellowships or wages -- must meet with the Tax Office prior to receiving payment.
At this meeting, a member of the office will review the individual's tax status to determine proper tax withholding, including whether the individual is eligible to claim a reduced income tax withholding rate pursuant to a tax treaty. The office will also determine if payments to the individual are exempt from Social Security and Medicare (FICA) tax withholding. For more information regarding payments to international individuals, visit the website at www.yale.edu/tax/int.
If an individual has not been set up on the payroll system prior to meeting with the Tax Office, he or she will need to provide documentation from the department regarding the position held (for example, postdoctoral fellow or postdoctoral associate) and type of payment (for example, stipend, fellowship or wage) at the appointment.
International students and scholars may schedule appointments through the International Tax Office website at www.yale.edu/tax/int/appointments.html. In addition, department administrators may schedule an appointment on behalf of an international student or scholar. To schedule an appointment with the office directly, call (203) 432-5530 or (203) 432-5597, or send e-mail to jodie.stewart-moore@yale.edu or daysi.cardona@yale.edu.
During the months of July, August and September, appointments will be scheduled Monday-Thursday between 8:30 a.m. and 3 p.m.
