Can I enter payment requests for non-resident aliens through PREP?
Due to the complexities of international tax treaties, Business Units must ensure proper classification and record requirements are met for payment requests to non-resident aliens. Because of the intense OSURF Accounts Payable review of documentation prior to voucher creation, OSURF can process payment requests for non-resident aliens. Since UNIV Accounts Payable does not review payment requests before voucher creation, payment requests to non-resident aliens cannot be processed through PREP. For UNIV, payment requests for non-resident aliens must be requested via the paper form available at http://www.ctlr.ohio-state.edu/form/form.shtm#ap.
