Tax ID: International Fellowships

Modified on Fri, 7 Aug at 12:07 PM

  1. Foreign persons conducting their AAUW fellowship year in the U.S., residing inside or outside the U.S.: The U.S. IRS requires tax filers to provide a U.S. Individual Taxpayer Identification Number orU.S. Social Security Number to file taxes. Certain recipients requesting tax exemptions must submit a tax number in their W8BEN. Others do not. However, as the process to obtain one of these numbers can be lengthy, AAUW strongly recommends that recipients apply for the appropriate number as soon as possible and submit it within their Form W8BEN.
  2. Foreign persons residing and conducting their AAUW project/fellowship outside the U.S.: Foreign persons, including nonresident aliens, who reside outside the U.S. and who are performing their AAUW project plan outside the U.S. do not need to submit U.S. taxpayer identification number.
  3. U.S. Persons (U.S. Citizens, U.S. Permanent Residents, and U.S. Resident Aliens): U.S. persons, including U.S. resident aliens must provide a U.S. Individual Taxpayer Identification Number or U.S. Social Security Number.
