2. Basic Concepts • Everyone should file tax return • Even if you don’t have income • File separately to IRS (federal tax) and Indiana Department of Revenue (state tax) • Assistance • Free software are available

3. Non-resident Alien

4. Overview • Information & Document needed. (passport, I-20/DS-2019, W-2, 1098T, 1042S, SSN, Bank Account) • Go to GLACIER • Get ready to print, sign and mail the forms. • GLACIER CANNOT and WILL NOT file your tax return electronically.

5. Web links 不重要! • Purdue: 可查到各種稅率,Cintax, fellowship稅率,等 http://www.purdue.edu/business/taxes/Tax_Information/index.html (每人身分,錢,預扣額可能不同,去問Business office就知道了) • ISS-Cintax: https://www.iss.purdue.edu/ssl/isstax/ • Get the Password from e-mail, then go to: http://www.cintax.us/ • Glacier必須由此進入 Cintax • https://www.glaciertax.com/ 如果沒有帳號密碼請從這裡申請 最重要!

8. Glacier walks you through the steps:

9. 基本資料

10. 填寫在美國居留的時間，來判定你的身份

11. 確認你填的資料沒錯─資料都有存在系統裡 也可以下次繼續再填 • 沒錯的話就下一步吧!

12. 確定是NR啦 用Glacier繼續報稅 • 如果非NR，Glacier就不會讓你繼續

13. 如果暑假有去intern可能會有好幾份W2 RA, TA 等有領薪水就會有W2 Fellowship才有1042S 利息、股息等等.

14. 把你的W2表拿出來對照吧 照著W-2格子編號輸入即可 記得要勾第一個

15. 台灣跟美國並沒有tax treaty (中國學生年收入的前$5000是免稅的)

17. 輸入你在美國的地址

18. 輸入台灣地址

19. 有工作就應該有SSN • ITIN是給沒SSN者的稅號– 要用Form W-7申請 • 可以幹麼? 辦信用卡可用ITIN代替SSN

21. 用NR身份報稅，配偶並沒有免稅額

22. 照I-20/DS-2019上的資料填即可

23. 有沒有在美國銀行借錢唸書? 有付貸款利息的話會有些tax benefit

24. 有沒有捐款? 要有收據證明 有沒有預付稅額 選No即可 如果上年度有用Glacier報稅 是Form 1040NR-EZ

25. 如果去年有報稅過，要回答一些問題: 假如去年有退稅, 你有告訴IRS不要退，而把額度保留到今年抵稅嗎? 去年有請人報稅或買報稅軟體嗎? (可以抵稅) 去年有補繳州稅嗎?

26. 竟然要補繳稅!!我要哭了 T__T 補繳的金額要用支票或money order給IRS 填完表格後必須印出來， 簽名、郵寄到IRS.

27. 不甘心，所以就亂填… 選DD 或支票 大概最晚六月會收到退稅

31. Glacier只能報Federal Tax。州稅要另外報

32. ITIN Application • 如果要順便幫眷屬辦ITIN • 填Form W-7 • 跟federal tax return放一起 • 身份證明文件 (護照、駕照等) • 通通寄到 • Internal Revenue Service • ITIN Operation • P.O. Box 149342 • Austin, TX 78714-9342
