International students are required to file taxes for the time
worked while attending the College of Charleston or any other
institution of higher education in the United States.
If a student returns to their country of origin, they will
need to contact the Student Employment Programs Coordinator
to update their address prior to their departure. All W-2 forms
are processed and sent from the Payroll office and mailed no
later than the end of January for the previous tax year. If
a student contacts you stating they have not received their
W-2, please refer them to the Payroll office.
Federal regulation prohibits employers as well as the Career
Center to provide any type of assistance to students seeking
help. Those students requesting help with the filing procedure
should either contact the IRS directly, a local accountant or
VITA, the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance program, found at
all county libraries.
