The Comprehensive Level workshop is designed for individuals who have a basic level of understanding of nonresident alien tax issues and have worked in the area for about a year. This is a fast-paced WEBshop in which the faculty will teach the "building blocks" of this complex area of the tax law. In many cases, individuals have simply been "thrown into" this area, with no instruction -- this course is designed to take someone back to the basics and learn the most efficient manner to approach this issue. There will be faculty instruction, practical examples, and case studies for each class, as well as time for individual questions. By the end of the WEBshop, all the steps are pulled together to ensure attendees get all the details, yet still see the big picture.
But the Comprehensive Course does not end after the online classes - the WEBshop continues on... Comprehensive Course registration allows participants access to ICE (Information, Communication, and Exchange) for one month after the WEBshop is completed - giving you another learning opportunity to build on your nonresident alien tax compliance knowledge base even after the WEBshop is over!
This WEBshop uses Nonresident Alien Tax Compliance: Volume One, 2018 / 2019 edition; the book may be purchased prior to the WEBshop start date; however, the WEBshop participant should allow time for shipping.

The Depositing, Reporting, and Documenting WEBshop Course is about more than just reporting! This new course will focus on the process an institution must take to properly withhold, remit and report with respect to payments under IRC section 1441 – and, perhaps more importantly, how to document that it was done correctly and on time! Many nonresident alien tax specialists are not “tax people” so they may not be familiar with the “ins and outs” of the proper manner by which tax must be deposited. Often withholding agents think that “reporting” is simply putting numbers on a line on a tax return; however, the reporting requirements under IRS section 1441 are not the same as other tax returns and statements prepared by the institution. A different method of calculation and review of the data is necessary to properly report payments made to nonresident aliens. Reporting is one of the last steps so by the time the withholding agent is ready to report payments made to nonresident aliens, it’s too late to go back and collect information or correct situations. The second class focuses on how to properly substantiate that all of the steps along the way were completed correctly and on time! What should (and should not) be in your institution’s tax file? Register for this course to find out. Each 75 minute class includes 55 minutes of instruction and 20 minutes of case study and Q&A.
