Let's get started

Foreign nationals who receive money from 小蓝视频 are subject to tax withholding. Follow the steps below to determine what you need to do to receive your payment.

  1. Determine if you need an appointment

    If you are a foreign national and receive any of the following payments, schedule an appointment:

    • Wages/Salary/Compensation
    • Graduate fellowship/assistantship
    • Room and board/Financial Aid Scholarship
    • Prizes/Achievement awards/Student support payments
    • Honorarium/Consulting fees/Per Diem
  2. Get a Social Security Number (SSN)

    After the hiring paper work is complete, a letter of employment will be given to you to apply for a Social Security Number (SSN). This letter must be signed by ISSS before going to the Social Security Office. Please schedule another appointment with a Foreign National Specialist once you receive the SSN to update your I-9 (Employment Eligibility Verification) form.
