Welcome to CINTAX!

Follow these simple steps to complete your U.S. tax return in an easy and efficient way! We have purchased a license agreement so that you can use CINTAX Complete International Tax Preparation System to prepare your U.S. income tax return. We also use GLACIER Online Tax Compliance Software, in which you have previously completed an Individual Record. You will be able to access CINTAX by going through GLACIER. To do so, you will simply access GLACIER using your existing UserID and Password and GLACIER will transfer certain data directly into CINTAX - making your tax return preparation even easier!
 
What Documents and Information Will You Need BEFORE You Login?
 

Much of the information you will need for CINTAX was previously entered in GLACIER and will be transferred over to CINTAX. Please make sure you have the following documents and information available BEFORE you log into CINTAX via GLACIER:

  •  Forms W-2, 1042-S and/or 1099 (if you received any - please note, we will issue Forms 1042-S on or before March 17); and
  • A copy of your 2006 federal income tax return (Form 1040NR or 1040NR-EZ), if you filed a federal income tax return in 2006.

You will be asked to enter your "Academic Institution" information; please enter the following information:

Academic Program Director Name:  Jerry Wilcox
Program Director - Telephone Number: (512) 471-2477
