F1 CPT 雇主代扣的social security, medicare, & income tax可以退税吗？

爱惜要靠谱

本人是f1学生，正在做实习，雇主代扣了social security, medicare, & income tax，看到自己的工资单感觉代扣的数额极其庞大，不知道4.15报税的时候可以退以上列出的税吗？如果可以的话，是什么手续，需要填什么表？十分感谢帮助！

social security 和medicare是不退的，但是federal tax和state tax（如果要交的話）交多了可以退。你收到w2 form以後裡面都有統計，拿去給會計師或者自己按照說明填tax return就可以計算出是否多交了能退還是沒交夠要補。
ps，415是截止日期，別拖到最後。

4. Tax Issues for Nonimmigrant Students
4.1. Where can I find more information about U.S. income taxes for nonimmigrant students?
The IRS has a website that specifically answers tax questions for foreign students and scholars.

4.2. Are nonimmigrant students required to file U.S. income tax forms?
Nonimmigrant students that have any of the following types of income need to file a special form 1040NR or 1040NR-EZ:

• A scholarship or fellowship, which is not partially or totally a Tax Free Scholarship or Fellowship as defined by the IRS
• Income partially or totally exempt from tax under the terms of a tax treaty; and/or
• Any other income, which is taxable under the Internal Revenue Code.
  

See the IRS website for more information.

4.3. Are there special income tax rules for nonimmigrant students?
Yes. The IRS divides aliens into residents and nonresidents for tax purposes. (These rules are different than the DHS rules governing immigration status.) Generally speaking, aliens who are in the United States for more than 183 days in any three-year period are considered resident aliens for tax purposes and are taxed in the same way as U.S. residents.
However, there is an exception available to students if they:

• Do not intend to reside permanently in the United States
• Have substantially complied with the immigration laws and requirements relating to their student nonimmigrant status
• Have not taken any steps to change their nonimmigrant status in the United States to become a permanent resident of the United States; and
• Have a closer connection to another country than to the United States
  

To claim the exception for students on an income tax return, students should attach Form 8843 to their Form 1040NR or 1040NR-EZ along with an attachment explaining their eligibility for the closer connection exception. Visit the IRS website for more information on this topic.

4.4. Where do I find a Form 1040NR, 1040NR-EZ, or IRS Form 8843?

你是F1CPT身份，雇主不需要代扣social security and Medicare taxes. 你可以告诉雇主不要代扣。你叫雇主或IRS 把这税还给你。具体操作可需要会计师帮助。

跟你一样，实习公司按照citizen报的税，多扣了medicare和social security，少扣了federal。。。真麻烦
