Information for International Visitors

FORM 1042-S

Each year, UC sends Form 1042-S to many of our students and scholars from outside the United States.  This form contains important tax information that may be necessary for the visitor to complete his or her US income tax return document.

Please join and follow the UC International Services listserv for notices about when Form 1042-S will be available, and what to do with your Form 1042-S if you receive it.

CANADIAN STUDENTS

Students from Canada can request that UC provide a TL11A tax slip, which will help the student to determine the tuition and education amounts each may claim on his or her Canadian tax return.  Please send your request to tax@uc.edu.

FILING YOUR U.S. TAX RETURN

UC International Services offers free assistance to our international visitors seeking to file their annual US tax return document.  We strongly recommend that you join their listserv to receive informational updates by e-mail.
