Foreign student

a work in progress

Below is Prosperity Now's Dispatch on Foreign Student Returns. I am in the process of studying this--I just took the test, so I will post more about this topic soon. ALSO...
Coming Soon is Information on becoming a FSA (Facilitated Self-Assistance) Site for Foreign Students--Earn It Keep It in California has great resources on this.

Note:  I did learn this, if the client is a Non-resident AND has self-employment, they are out of scope!!!! We cannot do Schedule C's on a 1040-NR at a a VITA/TCE site.

Please note: I, Mary Meador, AM NOT a certified accountant or tax law expert. I volunteer with VITA providing free tax preparation for individuals and families whose income is less than $66,000 a year. We deal with simple returns at our sites.  I cannot guarantee the accuracy of all the information on this site as tax laws change and I may not have a clear understanding of complicated issues. I am trying to provide basic tax preparation information for our volunteers to get started--remember Publication 4012 is your go-to resource for questions, as well as irs.gov and Publication 17. ​
