... there are two things worth knowing:
For your U.S. tax return: If you earned more than $10,000 in wages in a given calendar year in the U.S., no matter whether the earnings were from one or several employers, you will be taxed starting at the first penny earned in that calendar by the IRS. The tax treaty only applies when you earned less than $10,000. Thus, if you for example got treaty benefits at the College or at the Institute in the spring and then get a better paying job after graduating, consider filling out your W-4 for the new job in a way to get taxed a little bit higher otherwise you will end a lot of taxes at year-end and the IRS could even fine you for underpaying your taxes during the year.
For your Canadian tax return: You might need Form TL 11 a "Tuition, Education, and Textbook Amounts Certificate - University outside Canada". Send the Form with your name, Banner ID, and address where you want to receive it if you are not on campus to Student Financial Services (SFS). SFS will determine whether you were a full-time or part-time student and enter the year and month accordingly. In addition, SFS looks at your account and calculates tuition + student activity fee + study abroad fee and enters it onto the form.
