Foreign National Information System (FNIS) application

International students, scholars, faculty, and staff receiving payment from the University (e.g., taxable scholarship, fellowship, stipend, wages) are required to complete a FNIS application in order to enable the university to properly withhold income tax and report payments in accordance with U.S. tax requirements. Please email internationaltax@yale.edu to request the FNIS application link. In the email, please include your email address @ Yale, your name as it appears in the Yale Payroll system, and your University Person Identifier (UPI) number; the UPI number can be found on your Yale ID card.

The information you provide on the FNIS application assists in the determination of your U.S. tax residency status.
