To help you fulfill your IRS obligations, Wesleyan provides you with FREE access to the easy-to-use Sprintax Tax Preparation online software. Sprintax will determine your residency, guide you through the preparation process, arrange the necessary documents to mail to the IRS and check if you have a liability or are due a refund. The Sprintax Access code will be distributed in early March.
All new students and employees, individuals who are new to US tax filing, or those who have unusual circumstances, are strongly encouraged to attend one of Wesleyan’s FREE information sessions to help you understand your tax filing obligations and demonstrate Sprintax. Please see the attached flyer for more information about the sessions.
