The Federal Tax filing deadline is April 15, 2024. Even if you are outside of the U.S. or did not earn money in tax year 2023, you are still required to submit your taxes.
All foreign nationals must file U.S. tax paperwork every year. Foreign nationals who did not earn income during the year may only need to file the IRS Form 8843.
报税前, foreign nationals must determine if they are considered a “nonresident alien for tax purposes.” It is important to note that tax status is different than immigration status. Foreign nationals in the U.S. will complete a substantial presence test to determine whether or not they will file their taxes as a nonresident alien or a resident for tax purposes. Both F-1 and J-1 visa holders should complete the substantial presence test if they were present in the US, 哪怕只有一天. Any part of the calendar year in which the person was present counts as a full year.
Juilliard F-1 and J-1 visa holders can create a free account on Sprintax and complete a substantial presence test. Juilliard foreign nationals who are considered a “nonresident alien for tax purposes” may obtain a free license to use the Sprintax tax program. Juilliard offers various resources every spring semester to assist foreign nationals with their tax requirements. Foreign nationals may also need to file state taxes. Please refer to your state of residency to determine if additional forms need to be submitted.
