1. Income Taxes Did you know that all international students MUST file income tax papers, even if you didn’t work?

2. ITS TRUE! International students MUST file income tax papers every year, even if they didn’t work!

3. Why, you ask? Because our law says you must. Because it will help in the future if you will work in the United States (you might get a tax benefit because of the length of time you were in the United States) Because it may assist you if you apply for a benefit from USCIS (like an adjustment of status to permanent resident, otherwise known as “Green Card”)
