Foreign nationals who receive compensation in the United States incident to their status will be subject to both Federal and Connecticut state income taxes. The actual amount that an individual is liable for will depend on various factors such as immigration history, marital status, visa type, etc. Upon arrival at the University of Connecticut, foreign national faculty, staff and student employees must complete the online form to determine the appropriate withholdings: Foreign National Information Form
Once you complete the online form and upload the required supporting documents, Ellen Lowe will send your tax withholding forms with explanations and instructions to sign. Signed forms should be returned via the secure link: Upload Signed International Tax Forms here
