>If you were present in the United States during any part of 2007,
>there is at least one tax form you must complete. Tax forms are due
>to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) by April 15, 2008. If you were
>not in the United States at all during 2007, you do not need to
>complete any tax forms at this time.
>
>Most international scholars at Harvard are on J-1 visas and are
>considered non-residents for tax purposes. If you have dependents
>accompanying you on J-2 visas, they also need to complete at least
>one tax form. To help guide you through the tax filing process, the
>HIO has purchased, for your use, CINTAX, a web based tax return
>preparation software designed exclusively for international students,
>scholars, and their dependents who are nonresidents for tax purposes.
>CINTAX does not provide assistance with state tax returns. By mid-
>February we should have information on our web site (www.hio.harvard.
>edu) that provides assistance with state tax returns, sample tax
>returns for different tax situations, and answers to questions not
>covered by CINTAX.
>
>What Does CINTAX Do?
>" It determines which forms you must file and completes those forms
>for you to print out and submit to the IRS.
>" If you are a non-resident for tax purposes, it helps you prepare
>your U.S. federal income tax forms free of charge.
>
>What Documents Do You Need When Using CINTAX?
>" Your passport
>" Your visa document (Form DS-2019)
>" Any documents reporting U.S.-based income you received in 2007, if
>applicable (See below for list of possible documents)
>" Your Social Security Number or ITIN
>
>How Do I Access CINTAX?
>" Go to www.cintax.us
>" Set up a new User ID
>" Put in the password (see below)
>
>The password you need is H988NJPA.. Please do not share this
>password with others since the HIO has paid for a limited number of
>users to be authorized to use the software. Sharing of the password
>will jeopardize our ability to offer this service to you. If you
>have any problems using CINTAX, you may send an email to
>support@cintax.us.
>
>You may also hold visas other than J-1, such as H-1B, O-1, TN, or F-1
>OPT. You may or may not be considered non-residents for tax purposes,
>depending how long you have been in the United States. CINTAX will
>help you determine if you are a resident or non-resident for tax
>purposes. Please note that CINTAX can only help prepare non-resident
>tax forms. Please see our web site (www.hio.harvard.edu) for the
>differences between resident and non-resident taxes and for
>information on where you might be able to get assistance if you are
>not a non-resident for tax purposes.
