Tax Information

As a quick overview, the SGF is not wages, so no W-2 will be issued (the fellowship is analogous to a scholarship for tax purposes, as it does not include a work obligation). However, amounts in excess of tuition and certain required fees are still reportable to the Internal Revenue Service and California Franchise Tax Board.
