WHAT IS GLACIER AND WHY IS NEEDED Glacier is a secure web-based nonresident alien tax compliance system that the University of California uses to collect tax-related information from foreign visitors. Glacier helps determine tax residency, tax withholding rates, and income tax treaty eligibility, and it is also used to send out yearly tax form 1042-S. It s used by all UC campuses and addresses all federal tax obligations.
