International Students

International students will also need to obtain a Social Security Number (SSN) as part of the new job process. Completing the SSN application is time sensitive for students, and obtaining complete and correct SSN records is important for Georgetown. Please encourage your international student employees to begin this process as soon as they are offered a position.

Once a student receives an offer of employment, he or she should work with the Office of International Student and Scholar Services (ISSS) to prepare all necessary documents for the SSN application. A form or letter from the hiring department verifying that the student is employed at Georgetown is required. For more information we refer to OGS’s website on employment of F-1 & J-1 students, found here.

Note: F-1 students may begin working while their SSN application is being processed, however once a student has received his or her Social Security Card they will need to be sure their SSN is entered in GMS as soon as possible so that their tax records will be complete and correct. Please be sure to direct your student to the individual in their department who can enter their SSN or to send them to Georgetown's I-9 Office in Healy Hall to have their SSN entered into GMS. This must be done as soon as the Social Security Card is received.

Both federal and state tax forms will need to be completed as soon as possible. The maximum tax will be deducted from a student’s paycheck until exemption or withholding elections are completed
