IMPORTANT NOTE TO INTERNATIONAL OFFICIALS: Please be aware that in 2012 tax withholding procedures will be in place. International officials without a valid United States issued Social Security or Tax Identification Number (TIN) will have up to 30% of their compensation withheld. In most cases, this will require international officials to file a return at the end of the year in order to receive the amount withheld. We will have information available on how to navigate this process upon being accepted to the 2012 US Open.
