Tax Compliance

Our role is to serve the campus community as the primary information resource on federal, state, and local tax compliance matters for the University.  We are responsible for preparing federal and state tax returns for the University and reviewing payments (i.e. scholarships, service contracts) to Foreign Nationals to determine if a tax treaty applies or if federal or state tax should be withheld.
