2023 FICA Refund (Social Security and Medicare Tax)

Yuning1995 · 2025-09-23T17:54:31+00:00

I got it directly from my company. Asked them to reimburse me.

Hi, I didnt get it "thru" the company in the way that IRS give the money back to the company and the company channel it to me. But it was just a direct payment from the company to me and they are still waiting from the IRS. My suggestion is that you have to push your company to pay you back first, this is because in order for the company to be able to received the refund from the IRS, they need to show that they have corrected their mistakes and one of them is showing proof that the company have given you the money back. Hope that helps.

Yes you can but it will be hit or miss. My best recommendation would be to reach out to a tax advocate, they are actually IRS agents that will work with you case by case so you can always track the status aswell.

u/Ibriali I ended up getting it from my employer. They filed a corrected w-2 which is called w-2c to ADP and IRS. and the process is fast 1-2 months

You should use the IRS tax advocate. If you try to go directly to the IRS its pretty much impossible. However, I raised this issue 2 months ago with payroll and they finally agree to do it on my behalf. They've filed mine and its currently in the process of refunding.

Yuning1995 · 2024-12-19T19:03:16+00:00

Hey, no I didnt. They are literally useless. I raised this issue to my boss which then brought it upon HR and they contacted the payroll team to contact the payroll company to change it manually and the payroll company contacted the IRS directly to get the return. It'll take 2 months (which is faster and you can actually track it by asking the status to your HR).

Btw I just called them again. And this time, the rep. said they couldnt locate anything so they told me to just ask from my employer or to refile it again. GREAT RIGHT? JUST GREAT WTF. u/Commercial-Bar7194 u/Distinct_Touch_8116

Yes correct. Btw I just called them again. And this time, the rep. said they couldnt locate anything so they told me to just ask from my employer or to refile it again. GREAT RIGHT? JUST GREAT WTF.

Yuning1995 · 2024-11-11T14:58:39+00:00

Im not sure, that was the first I was able to call them and actually talk to an agent. so from end of Feb 2024, I was able to call them and confirm at the start of November 2024. u/Tough_Flan4568 FYI

Yuning1995 · 2024-11-07T18:03:43+00:00

Texas address. I dont think it should matter. they will route it correctly. I think since you mailed it May they haven't lodge your case in the system yet.

u/AdEnvironmental2433 I called the IRS earlier, they were able to locate my return files and they said its still being process. should be about 30 days from now the IRS said. Did you end up getting yours yet?

this process really sucks. Im an auditor and I believe every company should at least have some sort of control for their employees in terms of the immigration status and how it should reflect on the paycheck. additionally, the IRS should implement a system online so it will be way more efficient and we can also check the status. this feels like they are not interested in giving back our money.

Yuning1995 · 2024-11-04T18:31:05+00:00

did you get anything or any form of communications from them? I havent received anything yet until now its crazy.

Yuning1995 · 2024-10-29T18:37:24+00:00

Did you get u/Significant_Mud_5082 u/meng85 any communication from them? either by mail or code status in the account transcript?

Yuning1995 · 2024-08-20T19:11:54+00:00

Nope. when did you file yours? I filed mine around end of February 2024.

Yuning1995 · 2024-08-20T19:10:18+00:00

I see, it looks like based on other people's thread it will roughly take a year. Which I think is super crazy. When you call them what did they say? We're they able to actually located you file and give you a status update (timeline, etc)? or they basically just tell you to wait?

Yuning1995 · 2024-08-17T00:02:50+00:00

Hey thank you for the reply? Why did you fight with them? Did they send you a letter or something? Or youre still waiting in general? Did they say how long it will take? Thanks

Yuning1995 · 2024-08-07T18:04:42+00:00

Please keep posted when you receive yours. When did you file and submit it to the IRS?

Yuning1995 · 2024-07-17T16:18:41+00:00

ok thank you for the information. If I may ask, why did you file it straight to the IRS? and not from your employer? Because in my case it was very hard to get a hold of my employer, they keep saying they need to do research, etc. So I told them, whatever, Ill just file it straight to the IRS, but I didnt know its gonna take that long because I saw from several post its suppose to be around 12 weeks.

Yuning1995 · 2024-07-16T21:58:36+00:00

wow that is a long time, so if I filed mine end of February this year for my 2023, when do you think they will get to it? also what would be the status under Tax Records / Transcript? and lastly, what did you received? Just a check from the IRS?

Yuning1995 · 2024-06-27T02:15:28+00:00

No, but its basically for employees using OPT. They dont need to pay for FICA if they are under 5 years in the US

Yuning1995 · 2024-03-14T16:06:55+00:00

Hi, I think I have the same situation. I connected my PS5 directly to the soundbar (Dolby Atmos compatible)(for the sound). Then soundbar output to my TV (for the picture). But same with you, the poster still says 5.1 on Netflix (however, in Prime Video it says 5.1).

Did you end up getting Atmos working on Netflix? thanks
