NeilM Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Hi GradCafe, I have no idea how I'll be paid (W-2 vs other tax forms) and I plan to ask graduate students at the university I will be attending, but how do you all pay your taxes? Are they automatically withheld or do you pay them quarterly? Do you use a CPA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taxes are not typically withheld from fellowships, but are usually withheld from stipends for TA and RA positions. I only know this from doing tons of research. I have included a lot previous forums about this subject. I am sorry it is a lot, but taxes are super complicated and I am still trying to figure them out myself. I hope this helps!

magnetite Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 That was an incredibly helpful post, @Moods. I'm not sure how I'm the first upvote! I found the following two individual posts in those threads particularly useful to get an idea of how much in taxes I'd be paying: IceCream & MatSci and NeilM 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
