Why we are collecting this information:
Cal State LA can not issue payments to you until information regarding your immigration status is provided. This
information will be used to determine your correct withholding allowances for taxation purposes. The Internal
Revenue Service (IRS), the U.S. government tax authority, has issued strict regulations regarding the taxation and
reporting of payments made to non-United States citizens. As a result, Cal State LA may be required to withhold
U.S. income tax and file reports with the IRS in connection with any payments made to you.
What to expect:
Within a few days, you will receive an email message at the email address you provided, notifying you to log on to
the Foreign National Information System (FNIS). The email will contain the username and your password required
to log on to the system. For your convenience, Cal State LA allows you to provide information and complete
the necessary forms via the internet from any web-accessed computer. YOU MUST LOG ON TO THE
FOREIGN NATIONAL INFORMATION SYSTEM AND PROVIDE THE REQUESTED INFORMATION
Failure to comply:
I understand that if I do not provide the requested information, Cal State LA is unable to honor the withholding
exemption and other terms of my tax treaty. The maximum amount of U.S. tax will be withheld from any payments
made to me.
