Important Information for Students

Tax season is approaching, and all non resident & resident students are encouraged to begin preparing for their 2025 tax returns (1040 / 1040 NR), which are due April 15, 2026.  As a reminder, if you received income from GWU, you may receive a 1042 S. These forms will be distributed no later than March 15th to your Sprintax Calculus tax profile.

GW Tax is unable to provide personal tax advice or review tax returns.  However, if you are a non-resident for tax purposes, Sprintax Returns is there to help you.  Log into Sprintax Returns (Note: Not the same as Calculus) and use the live chat feature or email them at helloatsprintax [dot] com (hello[at]sprintax[dot]com).

Join our Tax Workshop on February 10th, participants will be the first to receive one of the limited discount codes to use when filing their 2025 tax return through Sprintax Returns (non-residents only).
