For students in the US, the countdown to Spring Break has started but
there are a few things you must take care of before you go. Not only
should you check that you have health insurance for your trip, but you
also need to file your taxes! So this month we brought you some great
resources to help. If you’re not yet inside the US don’t
worry, we have some great schools recruiting international students for
you to check out too. Sincerely, The International
Student Team

As an international student inside the US you’re required to file
US tax documents. If you have no idea how

If you have tax questions make sure you attend
our Hangout this month with Linda Melville from the University of
New Mexico! We will cover what you need to know about filing taxes as an
