Submitted by Human Capital Services – Learning and Development

Determining Tax Status for Foreign National Employees, WHR146, will be offered from 9-11 a.m. Thursday, Nov. 7, 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.

 Participants will learn how to do the following from the session:

  • Identify the IRS 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.
