Withholding on Scholarships and Fellowship Grants
If you are a nonresident alien student or grantee with an �F,� �J,� �M,� or �Q�
visa and you receive a U.S. source grant or scholarship that is not fully
exempt, the withholding agent (usually the payer of the scholarship) withholds
tax at 14% (or lower treaty rate) of the taxable part of the grant or
scholarship that is not a payment for services. However, if you are not a
candidate for a degree and the grant does not meet certain requirements, tax
will be withheld at the 30% (or lower treaty) rate.
Any part of a scholarship or fellowship grant that is a payment for services is
subject to graduated withholding.
