FAQ

What is my tax liability?

Since you are an fellow, not an employee of the National Academies, the National Academies does not withhold taxes from your stipend payments. This applies to both United States citizens and to foreign nationals who hold immigrant (permanent resident) visas. If you belong in either category, you should:

(a) study the pertinent tax publications
(b) plan ahead to meet any tax obligations, both federal and state
(c) prepare income-tax estimates
(d) make quarterly payments
(e) file your final returns by April 15 for the preceding tax (calendar) year

The responsibility for the payment of your income taxes rests solely with you. The Christine Mirzayan Fellowship Programs Office cannot provide information or consultation concerning income taxes.
