- If you did not earn taxable income during the 2007 calendar year, you still need to complete the 8843 form. It will only take about 5 minutes to complete.
- If you earned income during the 2007 calendar year, you will need to complete a 1040NR or 1040NR-EZ form. The ISS office has purchased an online tax software program to assist with completing your taxes. This program will account for tax treaties and provide accurate results. There is a $5 charge to suppliment the cost of the software program.
