I have been working on F1-OPT since last August and my employer deducted FICA for two months as both of us were not aware of the exemption (am in USA for less than 5 yrs). When I informed my employer about the exemption they asked me whether there is any exemption form issued by IRS that I/they can fill and submit, if any.
I searched IRS site and found no such form. Form 843 is there but it's a refund form for erroneous deduction. So my question is what kind of documents my employer needs; I-20/OPT card and a copy of my visa would work?
