Hi, I am a resident physician (not research) on a j-1 visa. Country of origin Lebanon
In my 3rd fiscal year 2 additional taxes are being withdrawn from my paycheck which are known as retirement and medicare. That has been going on for the past year. I asked my employer which is a non-profit community hospital and was told that I have to pay them.
I recently reviewed previous questions on the forum and it seems that resident physicians are exempt. How should I proceed about cancelling this "illegal" tax and get a refund? Thank you
