Dear International Students and Scholars,
The tax filing season has begun and if you earned income in the U.S. in 2022 you are responsible to file a tax return by April 18, 2023.  Pay special attention to the information below.  The VITA program at UConn and Sprintax software are available to students and scholars to help you fill out required tax forms.  If you did not earn any income, but were present in the U.S. skip down to the bottom for instructions on submitting the 8843 form.

  *   The Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) Program is run by trained UConn student volunteers and they will help you fill out your tax return documents. Register with the VITA program at the link below.  The VITA program will begin scheduling appointments in February.  Please register with the UConn VITA website<https://nam10.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fvita.business.uconn.edu%2Fuconn-vita-2022-request-for-information%2F&data=05%7C01%7Cinternational-l%40listserv.uconn.edu%7C5d1c2c48b6eb443a7cf508db0318c1ee%7C17f1a87e2a254eaab9df9d439034b080%7C0%7C0%7C638107177089120022%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=S%2B0H8HJvfC9K2WgoFxKA9fIsowYyUKgA%2F4Q4%2BFsKsy8%3D&reserved=0> if you wish to be notified when the appointment calendar is open.  https://accounting.business.uconn.edu/undergraduate/vita-program/<https://nam10.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Faccounting.business.uconn.edu%2Fundergraduate%2Fvita-program%2F&data=05%7C01%7Cinternational-l%40listserv.uconn.edu%7C5d1c2c48b6eb443a7cf508db0318c1ee%7C17f1a87e2a254eaab9df9d439034b080%7C0%7C0%7C638107177089276259%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=dVDbEmU3FhfeljLA8O2AP%2FFZAP75Vc%2Bp6hQdKY5ZKLs%3D&reserved=0>
