for the receipt of military retired pay would be entitled to compensation) under laws administered by
the Secretary of Veterans Affairs; or
A person who was discharged or released from active duty because of a service-connected disability.
A “recently separated veteran” means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such
veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.
Date of Separation:
An “active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran” means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S.
military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been

Statement Concerning Your Employment in a Job
Not Covered by Social Security
Employee Name
Employee ID#
Employer Name
Employer ID#
Your earnings from this job are not covered under Social Security. When you retire, or if you become disabled,
you may receive a pension based on earnings from this job. If you do, and you are also entitled to a benefit
from Social Security based on either your own work or the work of your husband or wife, or former husband or
wife, your pension may affect the amount of the Social Security benefit you receive. Your Medicare benefits,
however, will not be affected. Under the Social Security law, there are two ways your Social Security benefit
amount may be affected.
Windfall Elimination Provision
Under the Windfall Elimination Provision, your Social Security retirement or disability benefit is figured using a
modified formula when you are also entitled to a pension from a job where you did not pay Social Security tax.
As a result, you will receive a lower Social Security benefit than if you were not entitled to a pension from this
job. For example, if you are age 62 in 2013, the maximum monthly reduction in your Social Security benefit as
a result of this provision is $395.50. This amount is updated annually. This provision reduces, but does not
totally eliminate, your Social Security benefit. For additional information, please refer to Social Security
Publication, “Windfall Elimination Provision.”
Government Pension Offset Provision
Under the Government Pension Offset Provision, any Social Security spouse or widow(er) benefit to which you
become entitled will be offset if you also receive a Federal, State or local government pension based on work
where you did not pay Social Security tax. The offset reduces the amount of your Social Security spouse or
widow(er) benefit by two-thirds of the amount of your pension.
For example, if you get a monthly pension of $600 based on earnings that are not covered under Social
Security, two-thirds of that amount, $400, is used to offset your Social Security spouse or widow(er) benefit. If
you are eligible for a $500 widow(er) benefit, you will receive $100 per month from Social Security ($500 -
$400=$100). Even if your pension is high enough to totally offset your spouse or widow(er) Social Security
benefit, you are still eligible for Medicare at age 65. For additional information, please refer to Social Security
Publication, “Government Pension Offset.”
For More Information
Social Security publications and additional information, including information about exceptions to each
provision, are available at www.socialsecurity.gov. You may also call toll free 1-800-772-1213, or for the deaf
or hard of hearing call the TTY number 1-800-325-0778, or contact your local Social Security office.
I certify that I have received Form SSA-1945 that contains information about the possible effects of the
Windfall Elimination Provision and the Government Pension Offset Provision on my potential future
Social Security Benefits.

Notice 1392
(Rev. November 2013)
Department of the Treasury
Internal Revenue Service
Supplemental Form W-4 Instructions
for Nonresident Aliens
Nonresident aliens must follow special instructions when
completing Form W-4, Employee's Withholding Allowance
Certificate, for compensation paid to such individuals as
employees performing dependent personal services in the
United States. Compensation for dependent personal services
includes amounts paid as wages, salaries, fees, bonuses,
commissions, compensatory scholarships, fellowship income,
and similar designations for amounts paid to an employee.
Note. Form W-4, and the other IRS forms and publications
referenced in this notice, are available at www.irs.gov/
formspubs or by calling 1-800-829-3676.
Are you a nonresident alien? If so, these
special instructions apply to you. Resident
aliens should follow the instructions on
Form W-4.
If you are an alien individual (that is, an individual who is not
a U.S. citizen), specific rules apply to determine if you are a
resident alien or a nonresident alien for federal income tax
purposes. Generally, you are a resident alien if you meet either
the “green card test,” or the “substantial presence test,” for the
calendar year. Any alien individual not meeting either test is
generally a nonresident alien. Additionally, a dual-resident
alien who applies the so-called “tie-breaker” rules contained
within the Resident (or Residence or Fiscal Residence) article
of an applicable U.S. income tax treaty in favor of the other
Contracting State is treated as a nonresident alien. See
Publication 519, U.S. Tax Guide for Aliens, for more
information on the green card test and the substantial
presence test.
What compensation is subject to
withholding and requires a Form W-4?
Compensation paid to a nonresident alien for performing
personal services as an employee in the United States is
subject to graduated withholding. Compensation for personal
services also includes amounts paid as a scholarship or
fellowship grant to the extent it represents payment for past,
present, or future services performed as an employee in the
United States. Nonresident aliens must complete Form W-4
using the modified instructions provided later, so that
employers can withhold the correct amount of federal income
tax from compensation paid for personal services performed in
the United States. This Notice modifies the instructions on
Form W-4 to take into account the restrictions on a nonresident
alien's filing status, the limited number of personal exemptions
allowed, and the restriction on claiming the standard
deduction.
Are there any exceptions to this
withholding?
Yes. Nonresident aliens may be exempt from wage
withholding on the following amounts.
Compensation paid to employees of foreign employers if
such pay is not more than $3,000 and the employee is
temporarily present in the United States for not more than
a total of 90 days during the tax year.
Compensation paid to regular crew members of a foreign
vessel.
Compensation paid to residents of Canada or Mexico
engaged in transportation-related employment.
Certain compensation paid to residents of American
Samoa, Puerto Rico, or the U.S. Virgin Islands.
Compensation paid to foreign agricultural workers
temporarily admitted into the United States on H-2A visas.
See Publication 519 to see if you qualify for one of these
exemptions.
Nonresident aliens may be exempt from wage withholding
on part or all of their compensation for dependent personal
services under an income tax treaty. If you are claiming a tax
treaty withholding exemption, do not complete Form W-4.
Instead, complete Form 8233, Exemption from Withholding on
Compensation for Independent (and Certain Dependent)
Personal Services of a Nonresident Alien Individual, and give it
to each withholding agent from whom amounts will be
received. Even if you submit Form 8233, the withholding agent
may have to withhold tax from your income because the
factors on which the treaty exemption is based may not be
determinable until after the close of the tax year. In this case,
you must file Form 1040NR, U.S. Nonresident Alien Income
Tax Return, (or Form 1040NR-EZ, U.S. Income Tax Return for
Certain Nonresident Aliens With No Dependents, if you
qualify), to recover any overwithheld tax and to provide the IRS
with proof that you are entitled to the treaty exemption. See
Form 8233 and the Instructions for Form 8233, Publication
901, U.S. Tax Treaties, and Publication 519 for more
information on treaty benefits.
Am I required to file a U.S. tax return even
if I am a nonresident alien?
Yes. Nonresident aliens who perform personal services in
the United States are considered to be engaged in a trade or
business in the United States and generally are required to file
Form 1040NR (or Form 1040NR-EZ). However, if your only
U.S. trade or business was the performance of personal
services and the amount of compensation is less than the

personal exemption amount for the year (listed in Publication
519), then you may not need to file Form 1040NR (or Form
1040NR-EZ). Also, you do need to file Form 1040NR (or Form
1040NR-EZ) to claim a refund of any overwithheld taxes. See
the Instructions for Form 1040NR, or the Instructions for Form
1040NR-EZ, for more information.
Nonresident aliens who are bona fide residents of U.S.
possessions should consult Publication 570, Tax Guide for
Individuals With Income From U.S. Possessions, for
information on whether compensation is subject to wage
withholding in the United States.
Will my withholding amounts be different
from withholding for my U.S. co-workers?
Yes. Nonresident aliens cannot claim the standard
deduction. The benefits of the standard deduction are included
in the existing wage withholding tables published in Publication
15 (Circular E), Employer's Tax Guide.
Because nonresident aliens do not qualify for the standard
deduction, employers are instructed to withhold an additional
amount from a nonresident alien's wages. For the specific
amounts to be added to wages before application of the wage
tables, see Publication 15.
Note. A special rule applies to students and business
apprentices from India who are eligible for the benefits of
Article 21(2) of the United States-India income tax treaty,
because such individuals may be entitled to claim an additional
withholding allowance for the standard deduction. See
Publication 519 for more information.
What are the special Form W-4
instructions?
Nonresident aliens should pay particular attention to the
following lines when completing Form W-4.
Line 2. You are required to enter a social security number
(SSN) on line 2 of Form W-4. If you do not have an SSN, you
must apply for one on Form SS-5, Application for a Social
Security Card.
You can get Form SS-5 at http://www.ssa.gov/ssnumber/
ss5.htm or from any Social Security Administration (SSA)
office.
Note. You cannot enter an individual taxpayer identification
number (ITIN) on line 2 of Form W-4.
Line 3. Check the single box regardless of your actual marital
status.
Line 5. Generally, you should claim one withholding
allowance. However, if you are a resident of Canada, Mexico,
or South Korea, a student or business apprentice from India, or
a U.S. national, you may be able to claim additional
withholding allowances for your spouse and children. See
Publication 519 for more information.
If you are completing Form W-4 for more than one
withholding agent (for example, you have more than one
employer), figure the total number of allowances you are
entitled to claim and claim no more than that amount on all
Forms W-4 combined. Your withholding usually will be most
accurate when all allowances are claimed on the Form W-4 for
the highest-paying job and zero allowances are claimed on the
others.
Line 6. Write “nonresident alien” or “NRA” on the dotted line. If
you would like to have an additional amount withheld, enter the
amount on line 6.
Line 7. Do not claim that you are exempt from withholding on
line 7 of Form W-4 (even if you meet both of the conditions
listed on that line).

General Instructions
Future Developments
For the latest information about developments related to
Form W-4, such as legislation enacted after it was published,
go to www.irs.gov/FormW4.
Purpose of Form
Complete Form W-4 so that your employer can withhold the
correct federal income tax from your pay. If too little is
withheld, you will generally owe tax when you file your tax
return and may owe a penalty. If too much is withheld, you will
generally be due a refund. Complete a new Form W-4 when
changes to your personal or financial situation would change
the entries on the form. For more information on withholding
and when you must furnish a new Form W-4, see Pub. 505.
Exemption from withholding. You may claim exemption from
withholding for 2020 if you meet both of the following
conditions: you had no federal income tax liability in 2019 and
you expect to have no federal income tax liability in 2020. You
had no federal income tax liability in 2019 if (1) your total tax on
line 16 on your 2019 Form 1040 or 1040-SR is zero (or less
than the sum of lines 18a, 18b, and 18c), or (2) you were not
required to file a return because your income was below the
filing threshold for your correct filing status. If you claim
exemption, you will have no income tax withheld from your
paycheck and may owe taxes and penalties when you file your
2020 tax return. To claim exemption from withholding, certify
that you meet both of the conditions above by writing “Exempt”
on Form W-4 in the space below Step 4(c). Then, complete
Steps 1a, 1b, and 5. Do not complete any other steps. You will
need to submit a new Form W-4 by February 16, 2021.
Your privacy. If you prefer to limit information provided in
Steps 2 through 4, use the online estimator, which will also
increase accuracy.
As an alternative to the estimator: if you have concerns
with Step 2(c), you may choose Step 2(b); if you have
concerns with Step 4(a), you may enter an additional amount
you want withheld per pay period in Step 4(c). If this is the
only job in your household, you may instead check the box
in Step 2(c), which will increase your withholding and
significantly reduce your paycheck (often by thousands of
dollars over the year).
When to use the estimator. Consider using the estimator at
www.irs.gov/W4App if you:
1. Expect to work only part of the year;
2. Have dividend or capital gain income, or are subject to
additional taxes, such as the additional Medicare tax;
3. Have self-employment income (see below); or
4. Prefer the most accurate withholding for multiple job
situations.
Self-employment. Generally, you will owe both income and
self-employment taxes on any self-employment income you
receive separate from the wages you receive as an
employee. If you want to pay these taxes through
withholding from your wages, use the estimator at
www.irs.gov/W4App to figure the amount to have withheld.
Nonresident alien. If you’re a nonresident alien, see Notice
1392, Supplemental Form W-4 Instructions for Nonresident
Aliens, before completing this form.
Specific Instructions
Step 1(c). Check your anticipated filing status. This will
determine the standard deduction and tax rates used to
compute your withholding.
Step 2. Use this step if you (1) have more than one job at the
same time, or (2) are married filing jointly and you and your
spouse both work.
Option (a) most accurately calculates the additional tax
you need to have withheld, while option (b) does so with a
little less accuracy.
If you (and your spouse) have a total of only two jobs, you
may instead check the box in option (c). The box must also be
checked on the Form W-4 for the other job. If the box is
checked, the standard deduction and tax brackets will be cut
in half for each job to calculate withholding. This option is
roughly accurate for jobs with similar pay; otherwise, more tax
than necessary may be withheld, and this extra amount will be
larger the greater the difference in pay is between the two jobs.
F
!
CAUTION
Multiple jobs. Complete Steps 3 through 4(b) on only
one Form W-4. Withholding will be most accurate if
you do this on the Form W-4 for the highest paying job.
Step 3. Step 3 of Form W-4 provides instructions for
determining the amount of the child tax credit and the credit
for other dependents that you may be able to claim when
you file your tax return. To qualify for the child tax credit, the
child must be under age 17 as of December 31, must be
your dependent who generally lives with you for more than
half the year, and must have the required social security
number. You may be able to claim a credit for other
dependents for whom a child tax credit can’t be claimed,
such as an older child or a qualifying relative. For additional
eligibility requirements for these credits, see Pub. 972, Child
Tax Credit and Credit for Other Dependents. You can also
include other tax credits in this step, such as education tax
credits and the foreign tax credit. To do so, add an estimate
of the amount for the year to your credits for dependents
and enter the total amount in Step 3. Including these credits
will increase your paycheck and reduce the amount of any
refund you may receive when you file your tax return.
Step 4 (optional).
Step 4(a). Enter in this step the total of your other
estimated income for the year, if any. You shouldn’t include
income from any jobs or self-employment. If you complete
Step 4(a), you likely won’t have to make estimated tax
payments for that income. If you prefer to pay estimated tax
rather than having tax on other income withheld from your
paycheck, see Form 1040-ES, Estimated Tax for Individuals.
Step 4(b). Enter in this step the amount from the Deductions
Worksheet, line 5, if you expect to claim deductions other than
the basic standard deduction on your 2020 tax return and
want to reduce your withholding to account for these
deductions. This includes both itemized deductions and other
deductions such as for student loan interest and IRAs.
Step 4(c). Enter in this step any additional tax you want
withheld from your pay each pay period, including any
amounts from the Multiple Jobs Worksheet, line 4. Entering an
amount here will reduce your paycheck and will either increase
your refund or reduce any amount of tax that you owe.

Step 2(b)—Multiple Jobs Worksheet (Keep for your records.)
If you choose the option in Step 2(b) on Form W-4, complete this worksheet (which calculates the total extra tax for all jobs) on only ONE
Form W-4. Withholding will be most accurate if you complete the worksheet and enter the result on the Form W-4 for the highest paying job.
Note: If more than one job has annual wages of more than $120,000 or there are more than three jobs, see Pub. 505 for additional
tables; or, you can use the online withholding estimator at www.irs.gov/W4App.

International Students and Social Security Numbers
International Students and Social
Security Numbers
Are you temporarily in the United States to
attend a college, language, vocational, or
nonacademic school with a nonimmigrant F-1,
M-1, or J-1 student classication? Your school
may ask you for your Social Security number.
Some colleges and schools use Social Security
numbers as student identication numbers. If
you don’t have a Social Security number, the
college or school should be able to give you
another identication number.
Social Security numbers generally are assigned
to people who are authorized to work in the
United States. Social Security numbers are
used to report your wages to the government
and to determine eligibility for Social Security
benets. Social Security will not assign a
number to you just to enroll in a college
or school.
If you want to get a job on campus, you should
contact your designated school ofcial for
international students. This ofcial can tell you if
you’re eligible to work on campus and can give
you information about available jobs. Also, your
school may approve certain limited off-campus
employment, as permitted under Department of
Homeland Security (DHS) regulations. If your
school has authorized you to work either
on or off campus, and you meet Social
Security’s eligibility requirements described
in the next section, you can get a Social
Security number.
In general, only noncitizens who have DHS’
permission to work can apply for a Social
Security number. We suggest you wait 48 hours
after reporting to your school before you apply
for a Social Security number. This waiting will
help ensure we can verify your immigration
status with the DHS.
To apply for a Social Security number at your
local Social Security ofce:
Complete an Application for a Social Security
card (SS-5); and
Show us documents proving your:
Work-authorized immigration status;
Age; and
Identity.
Immigration status
To prove your immigration status, you must
show us a current admission stamp in your
unexpired foreign passport and Arrival/
Departure Record (Form I-94), if available.
If you’re an F-1 or M-1 student, you must
also show us your Certicate of Eligibility for
Nonimmigrant Student Status (Form I-20). If
you’re a J-1 exchange visitor, you must show us
your Certicate of Eligibility for Exchange Visitor
Status (Form DS-2019).
Work eligibility
If you’re an F-1 student and eligible to work on
campus, you must provide a letter from your
designated school ofcial that:
Identies you;
Conrms your current school status; and
Identies your employer and the type of work
you are, or will be, doing.
We also need to see evidence of that
employment, such as a recent pay slip or a
letter from your employer. Your supervisor must
sign and date the employment letter. This letter
must describe:
Your job;
Your employment start date;
The number of hours you are, or will be,
working; and
Your supervisor’s name and telephone
number.
If you’re an F-1 student authorized to work in
curricular practical training (CPT), you must
provide us your Form I-20 with the employment
page completed and signed by your school’s
designated ofcial.
SocialSecurity.gov
If you’re an F-1 or M-1 student and have a work
permit (Form I-766) from the DHS, you must
present it.
If you’re a J-1 student, student intern, or
international visitor, you must provide a letter
from your sponsor. The letter should be on
sponsor letterhead with an original signature
that authorizes your employment.
We cannot process your application if:
Your on-campus or CPT work begins more
than 30 days from your application date; or
The employment start date on your work
permit from the DHS (Form I-766) is a
future date.
Age
You must present your foreign birth certicate if
you have it or can get it within 10 business days.
If you can’t present your foreign birth certicate,
we can consider other documents, such as your
passport or a document issued by the DHS, as
evidence of your age.
Identity
We can only accept certain documents as proof
of identity. An acceptable document must be
current (not expired) and show your name,
identifying information, and preferably, a recent
photograph. Social Security will ask to see your
current unexpired foreign passport with DHS
issued immigration documents.
All documents must be either originals or
copies certied by the issuing agency. We
cannot accept photocopies or notarized
copies of documents. We also cannot
accept a receipt showing you applied for
the document. We may use one document
for two purposes. For example, we may use
your admission stamp in the unexpired foreign
passport as proof of both work eligibility
and identity.
We don’t require you to have a Social Security
number before you start work. However,
the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) requires
employers to report wages using a Social
Security number. While you wait for your Social
Security number, your employer can use a letter
from us stating that you applied for a number.
Your employer may use your immigration
documents as proof of your authorization
to work in the United States. Employers
can nd more information on the Internet at
www.socialsecurity.gov/employer/hiring.htm.
Contacting Social Security
The most convenient way to contact us anytime,
anywhere is to visit www.socialsecurity.gov.
There, you can: apply for benets; open a
my Social Security account, which you can
use to review your Social Security Statement,
verify your earnings, print a benet verication
letter, change your direct deposit information,
request a replacement Medicare card, and get a
replacement SSA-1099/1042S; obtain valuable
information; nd publications; get answers to
frequently asked questions; and much more.
If you don’t have access to the internet, we
offer many automated services by telephone,
24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Call us toll-
free at 1-800-772-1213 or at our TTY number,
1-800-325-0778, if you’re deaf or hard
of hearing.
If you need to speak to a person, we can answer
your calls from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., Monday through
Friday. We ask for your patience during busy
periods since you may experience a higher than
usual rate of busy signals and longer hold times
to speak to us. We look forward to serving you.
