1042-S Requests
1042-S forms will be available by early March. If you have a Glacier account and did not opt out of electronic delivery, you will receive an email with retrieval instructions. Otherwise, your form will be mailed via U.S. mail.
Only certain individuals receive Form 1042-S; those that had a tax treaty exemption applied to their income, and those who received a scholarship or fellowship through payroll before passing the IRS substantial presence test.
Before requesting a duplicate 1042-S, make sure you were eligible to receive one. Compare your total taxable income for the year to the amounts reported on Form W-2 and the fellowship letter. Each dollar of income or stipend will only be reported on one form/letter.
