2023 tax year 1042-S forms
Employee Services has mailed all 1042-S forms for the 2023 tax year to non-U.S. citizens who had one or more of the following in 2023:
- tax treaty-exempt income
- non-qualified scholarship payments
- taxable non-employee compensation
If you received income described above but haven't received your form by Feb. 20, please submit a 1042-S Reissue Request Form to Employee Services.
What is a 1042-S Form?
Non-resident alien taxpayers who have either tax treaty-exempt income, non-qualified scholarship payments and/or taxable non-wage compensation will receive a 1042-S Form to report their earnings to the IRS.
When will 1042-S forms be sent?
Forms must be mailed to filers no later than March 15 every year. Employee Services strives to mail forms well in advance of this IRS deadline to give employees and students more time to file.
If you do not receive this form by Feb. 20, please submit a 1042-S Reissue Request Form to Employee Services.
Why have I received more than one tax form from the university?
The University of Colorado will provide a seperate1042-S form for each 1042-S reportable payment issued in a given tax year.
In many cases, an employee will receive both a Form W-2 and a Form(s) 1042-S in a given tax year.
When should I file?
Please wait to file your annual income tax returns until you have received all relevant tax reporting forms for the tax year.
Filing without all of the required documentation could result in your need to make corrections by filing an amended tax return.
