If you have been here for five or less years, you do NOT pay social security or Medicare taxes. Make sure to inform your HR office and check your first pay receipt. If these taxes were withheld, please inform your HR office immediately. If they do not get this fixed, it will be an issues for your taxes next year.

If you have been in the U.S. for more than five years, you are subject to these taxes.

Make sure your HR office has a good mailing address to send the W-2 next year. If you are not sure where you will be living, have them send to the Ivanhoe International Center.

If you are doing this for credit:

You and the co-op coordinator will get an email from the Ivanhoe International Center. Do the following:

• Make an appointment with your internship coordinator and/or major advisor

• Talk to the internship coordinator and/or major advisor about which Cooperative Education (CP) class you must register for:

  • Part-time (less than 20 hours a week): one credit of Cooperative Education (CP) classes;

  • Full-time (more than 20 hours a week): two (2) credits of Cooperative Education (CP) classes

Cooperative Education classes are required to comply with U.S. Government regulations. The class may or may not count towards your degree requirements. Talk to your advisor about this. Either way, as an international student, you are required to take these.

See this GUIDE to change the credits, if needed.
