Every November, TUFS will send an announcement asking you to submit documents for the “Year End Tax Adjustment” so please check e-mail from "intl-announce[at]tufs.ac.jp" as well as the website of “Inside TUFS (English)”. Everyone registered as a “resident” needs to submit the form.
*Please note that TUFS only processes the application form about the salary you receive from TUFS. If you have any side-jobs, TUFS cannot accept any tax-income certificates issued by other organizations. If you have any side-jobs, please go to the tax authority in the area of your residence during the “Kakutei-Shihkoku” period (mid Feb-mid Mar), bringing all of your tax-income certificates including the one issued from TUFS.

If you don’t understand how to fill in the forms, please ask your host professor to assist you. Please note that the deadline must be kept. If you don’t submit by the deadline, your income tax for the next year will be raised by 5 times more.
If you have any “保険料支払証明書” (a receipt of the private insurance) from private insurance companies, you will also need to attach the receipts to submit.
