If you're an international student and FICA taxes were withheld from your paycheck — you may be eligible for a full refund. We help you claim it.
Check My Refund EligibilityFICA taxes — covering Social Security and Medicare — are automatically withheld from employee paychecks in the U.S. But international students on F-1, J-1, M-1, or Q-1 visas are generally exempt from these taxes for a certain period.
However, many employers wrongly deduct FICA taxes from student paychecks. If this happened to you, Grand Tax Filers will help recover every dollar — even for past years.
You could get back a significant portion of your wages withheld as FICA — even from past years.
Students on valid visas and within non-resident status duration qualify. We check that for you.
You typically have 3 years to file a FICA refund. Don’t let your refund expire.
Whether you’re a current student or already returned home — if FICA was wrongly deducted, we’ll get it back for you.
If you’ve worked in the U.S. on a student visa — don’t leave money on the table.
We can get that money back for you — fast, legally, and without hassle.
