I can’t find my 1042-S?! I have always received one in the past, and I know I am eligible for the treaty!

If you expected a 1042-S but do not have one in GLACIER, most likely you did not take the treaty through Georgia Tech in 2015. However, you can still receive the treaty benefit through your tax return. If you use Sprintax, the program will know from your other forms that you haven't yet taken the treaty and (if you are eligible) Sprintax will make the appropriate adjustments to your tax refund. You do not need a 1042-S to claim a treaty benefit, it is simply a form for reporting a benefit that has already been claimed.

Both resident and nonresident aliens for tax purposes who already claimed treaties in 2015, as well as all those students who are nonresident aliens for tax purposes receiving scholarships greater than tuition, will use a form 1042-S to complete their tax return.  1042-S forms were released on February 12, 2016.  Recipients received an email from GLACIER when the form was ready.

Anxious to Start Your 2012 Tax Return?

As we enter the tax filing period for 2012, you may be anxious to complete your return and to get your refund.  We at OHR and OIE understand this, and want to help!  

Please keep in mind that all non-US citizens (who are not US green card holders) should first use the GLACIER tax compliance system to determine if you are a resident or nonresident alien for tax purposes.  If GLACIER determines that you are a nonresident for tax purposes, we can help!  As a nonresident for tax purposes you will be able to complete your federal tax return using GLACIER Tax Prep (GTP) which will be available for use via your current GLACIER account no later than February 15, 2013.  

Workshops assisting with the Georgia state tax forms will be held February 20 through April 12 with dates, times, and locations to be announced soon.

Also, please be reminded that both resident and nonresident aliens for tax purposes who claimed treaties in 2012, as well as all those students who are nonresident aliens for tax purposes receiving scholarships above and beyond tuition, will need a form 1042-S to complete their tax return.  1042-S forms will also be released no later than February 15, 2013.  Recipients will receive an email from GLACIER when the form is ready for use.
