I am an F-1 student and I may have just found out I passed the substantial presence test for tax year 2020. I assume that makes me subject to FICA taxes for the entire year of 2020.
My employer currently doesn't withhold any social security or Medicare taxes from my paychecks. If I confirm I am indeed a resident for tax purposes, how do I get this situation corrected with my employer?
I have not yet completed my tax return for 2020.
You'll need to sign in or create an account to connect with an expert.
If you were required to pay FICA taxes and your employer did not withhold it, I would suggest you communicate with your employer to resolve the issues. They might need to issue you a corrected 2020 W-2 thus you may need to amend your tax return later.
I am attaching a few links here for your reference:
