NASA's Graduate Student Research Program refers students to the following: All questions concerning taxes should be directed to the Internal Revenue Service. Refer to IRS Publication 520, "Scholarships and Fellowships," and Publication 508, "Tax Benefits for Work-Related Education," for further information.

Administration List <xxxxxx@HRINET. ORG> 04/10/2002 03:53 PM Please respond to Research Administration Discussion List Hi All I just had a very distraught student come in to my office. He is receiving a federal fellowship stipend. He was told by the awarding agency that it is not taxable. H&R Block did his taxes last year and told him that it was not taxable. He received no 1099 or other forms indicating that he needed to pay taxes. He just received an e-mail from his program officer saying that his stipend is, indeed, taxable. If anyone has had experience with this, I would appreciate any insight you can give. THANKS, Marie %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Marie F.
