GLACIER


Glacier is a web based International
tax compliance system.
Instead of handing out tax forms to
international visitors, you will be
issuing them passwords.
GLACIER

Business office procedure to receive access to
issue passwords; e-mail the Tax Department the
following information:






Name
Title
Campus address
Campus phone and fax number
E-mail address
You will receive an e-mail with your password
and instructions on how to login. The e-mail will
come from support@online-tax.net and not
Purdue.
GLACIER


When you issue a password, an e-mail is
sent to the visitor asking them to enter
their information into the Glacier system.
The e-mail will come from
support@online-tax.net and not Purdue.
Please advise them to look for this e-mail
and others in the future.
Advise them to keep the password and
instructions for future use of the Glacier
system.
GLACIER



After the visitor enters their information, a Tax Summary
Report, and any other required IRS forms will be available
to print. Ex) 8233, W-8BEN, or W-7. The Tax Summary
Report will replace the NRA-100.
If the visitor does not have a social security number or an
ITIN, Glacier will put a hold on printing the forms for that
visitor. The Tax Department can override the hold and
print the forms when the employee is in our office. The
business office needs to contact the Tax Department to
override the hold which enable the visitor to print the
forms.
The Tax Department will process the ITIN application
upon receipt of the payment request.
GLACIER

We will use Glacier to generate the
tax forms required for payments to
individuals receiving personal service
payments, scholarships, awards,
royalty payments, or reimbursement
of travel expenses via invoice
vouchers. The Tax Summary Report
printed from Glacier will replace the
NRA-100.
GLACIER



Fellowship recipients will also be using this
system.
For the payments above, check the NonEmployee box for Pay Period type when
you are issuing a password.
If you have an incoming visitor having
difficulties printing, offer to print the forms
for them when they arrive in your office.

Additional Non-Resident Alien Instructions
There are IRS and USCIS regulations we must follow for Non-Resident Aliens. Purdue
University uses a web-based tax compliance system, called Glacier, to assist us in
complying with these regulations. Any time you receive some form of income from
Purdue, such as a payment for services, an award, or a fellowship, you will need to create
or update you record in Glacier.
Current employees or if you have been paid by Purdue this year:
 You should have an e-mail with your password and login instructions to the
Glacier system. You can request a copy of your password and login instructions
by sending an e-mail to taxes@purdue.edu.
 You will need to update the Glacier system with your current information and add
the type of payment you are receiving.
 Print the Tax Summary and any other forms as directed.
 Sign the forms and send them with copies of the documents listed on the Tax
Summary to your contact in the business office.
If you have not been paid by Purdue before:
 The business office will send you an e-mail giving you login instructions and your
password to create your record in the Glacier system.
 Print the Tax Summary and any other forms as directed.
 Sign the forms and send them with copies of the documents listed on the Tax
Summary to your contact in the business office.

What is a Tax Treaty?


Treaties between the US and other countries are
negotiated. They allow for certain types of
income to be exempt from tax.
There are many articles (categories) in a tax
treaty. Some of the common articles we use are
an exemption from tax for employee
compensation, scholarship and fellowship
payments, independent contractor payments,
prizes and awards, and royalty payments
What is a Tax Treaty?



Some countries have an exemption from tax
withholding for all categories of income and
some may only have negotiated an exemption
for independent contractor payments for
example.
Please check the tax treaty charts on our website
for a current listing of countries exempt from tax
under each income type.
Glacier will indicate the allowability of the
Canadian treaty, however, Purdue University
does not honor the Canadian tax treaty; the
individual can collect the treaty on their annual
return.

Uniform Guidance Addition


Effective December 26, 2014, the rules related to federallysponsored awards are changing. Institutions of Higher
Education, the Federal Government’s Office of Management and
Budget, its other non-federal partners (state, local governments
and nonprofit organizations) and the audit community have
been working together to streamline the Federal Government’s
guidance on Administrative Requirements Cost Principles, and
Audit Requirements for Federal Awards.
All personal payments will abide by these regulations.
