Not everyone receives a 1042-S. It depends on your tax status and your income. The following situations describe when a 1042-S would be issued. Please review the Office of the Controller's website for additional information.

• If you received wages or salary on which you claimed a tax treaty exemption.
• If you received a scholarship or fellowship (no services performed), regardless of whether tax was deducted or whether you claimed a tax treaty exemption. Please note that if you only received tuition, required fees, or a book allowance applied to your term bill, you will not receive any tax reporting documents.
• If you received income from any prizes or awards.
