Starting November 4, 2024, Rice will be switching from the Foreign National Information System (FNIS) to Sprintax Calculus. This secure, cloud-based software will be used to manage tax documents and determine tax residency, treaty benefits, and withholding requirements for foreign national students and employees. More information can be found on the Controller's Office Tax Department website.

Foreign nationals will receive an email from ForeignNationalTax@rice.edu with login credentials so individuals can provide immigration information and travel history through Sprintax Calculus. This information enables the Controller's Office Tax Department to determine tax status and comply with U.S. withholding and reporting requirements.
