Submitted by Human Capital Services-Learning and Development

Determining Tax Status for Foreign National Employees, WHR146, will be offered from 2-4 p.m. Thursday, July 21, in the Edwards Hall commons area. 

Human Capital Services is offering this session specifically for K-State employees who are responsible for processing personnel and payroll transactions for foreign national employees. This session will provide an overview on how a foreign national employee's tax status is determined. Presenters will focus on providing a basic understanding of the Internal Revenue Service rules and regulations associated with tax withholding requirements based on whether the foreign national is a nonresident or resident for tax purposes as well as discussing tax treaty benefits and the appropriate forms required.  

As a result of this session, participants will:

• Identify the Internal Revenue Service tax withholding requirements. 
• Determine whether a foreign national is a nonresident or resident for tax purposes. 
• Determine if tax treaty benefits apply. 
• Select the additional forms required when putting a foreign national on the payroll.
