The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is the United States government agency responsible
for the collection of federal income taxes. All non-immigrants in F or J status (both
the principal and all dependents) are required to file an individual income tax return
if they were physically present in the U.S. during the tax year, even if they had
no U.S. source income of any kind. Please be aware that there are penalties for failure
to file a tax return.
Radford University does not provide any workshops or instructions on filing taxes
for international students and scholars. Individuals are encouraged to seek tax advice
from the many tax business in the Radford, Blacksburg or Christiansburg area prior
to filing their taxes.
