Parking is very limited at UT Austin. All registered students are eligible to purchase a ‘C’ hangtag permit. Registered graduate students who are employed by UT for at least twenty hours per week (GRAs, TAs, and some fellowship holders) may request an ‘A’ hangtag permit online. The graduate coordinator sends in a parking verification form to the parking office in late August. If you believe you qualify for ‘A’ parking and the parking office does not have your name, contact the graduate coordinator. For more information on eligibility, fees, location of the parking lots, or other information on parking, contact UT Parking.
Taxes
Fellowship stipends are taxable and recipients must arrange to pay their taxes quarterly since their stipends are not subject to withholding tax. The proper tax form is the 1040-ES/V, which can be downloaded from the IRS web page.
GRA/TA/AI payments will have taxes deducted automatically.
Tax services for international students are available starting in early March from ISSS. They have online resources, phone services and in-person appointments for non-resident aliens. More information can be found on the tax section of the ISSS website.
Community Tax Centers is a resource for citizens and resident aliens. They provide financial coaching, FASFAs, and help with tax returns for those with household income is less than $50,000 per year.
Tax Withholding for International Student Employees (GRA or TA)
International students will need to file a paper W-4 for tax withholding, rather than the online W-4 in their Paycheck Profile.
They should receive login instructions within the first two weeks of employment, to access GLACIER (an online tax program). This message will come via the UT Secure message System.
GLACIER generates a W-4 and the student takes the W-4 and supporting documents to the Payroll office in MAI 134 so it can be applied to their paychecks.
