Hi
I am on H1 since Oct 2007 and was on F1 before that. My company never deducted my social security/medicare and even I was unaware of any such tax. Today I got an email from my company saying I need to pay all taxes starting oct 2007 to the company as company has already paid them. Question is : legally can the company force me to pay back dated taxes. One of my colleague who started with me left the company recently, so how does the company recover taxes from him. The point is if I leave the company now I won't have to pay those taxes?
Thanks
