Hey @pk
My immigration history:
Entered US 12/30/2013 on F1
Changed to H1B on 11/18/2017
Current H1B Expiry date: 1/27/2024
Changed to F1 on 12/11/2023
Since date does not matter only year matters, I have been on F1 = 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2023 = 6 years
Does that mean FICA taxes should be deducted from my paychecks this year?
I see there is a statement on IRS site,
"You will not be an exempt individual as a student if you have been exempt as a teacher, trainee, student, Exchange Visitor, or Cultural Exchange Visitor on an "F, " "J, " "M, " or "Q " visa for any part of more than 5 calendar years, unless you establish to the satisfaction of the IRS that you do not intend to reside permanently in the United States, and you have substantially complied with the requirements of your nonimmigrant status"
I haven't filled PERM or i140. Does that mean I satisfy that I do not intend to reside permanently and don't have to pay FICA Taxes?
