Article 14 Tax Assistance

Section 1

The Harvard International Office (HIO) offers resources to assist international student workers with their tax issues. For as long as such programs exist, HIO will continue to offer web-based tax software designed exclusively for international students, scholars, and their dependents who are non-residents for tax purposes. If such programs cease to exist, the University will notify the Union and, upon request of the Union, discuss possible alternatives to such programs.

Section 2

HIO advisors are not trained tax specialists and cannot provide individual advice on taxes. Harvard as an institution does not advise on any personal income tax requirements or issues. Use of any information from any Harvard website on such topics are for general information only and does not represent personal tax advice either express or implied.

Section 3

By using these tax assistance programs, the SW acknowledges that Harvard University is not liable for any errors and incidental or consequential damages in connection with the furnishing, performance or use by the SW of these on-line systems, on-line HELP and/or examples contained therein.
