Can I get the refund of social security tax that withhold from my wage if I am an F1 student? Which form should I use?
Thanks a lot.

You CAN get a refund of withheld Social Security and Medicare taxes if:

- the work done is related to your field of study or training.

AND

- You have been in the U.S. for less than five years.

The Form is Form 843. You need to ask your employer for a refund first. When they refuse, get the refusal in writing.

If you need professional help to prepare this Form 843, please consider using my services. You will find my rates very reasonable. Contact me at david.kempe@<hidden> if you are interested! I have references from clients who are people just like you.
