Foreign Student & Exchange Program, Participant Liability for Taxes
Foreign Student & Exchange Program, Participant Liability for Social Security & Medicare Taxes in Charleston, SC
In most instances, non-resident students and exchange program participants in the U.S. for less than 5 years are not liable for Social Security and Medicare taxes while working under an F, M, J, or Q visa. They are, however, subject to federal, state, and local taxes. This is a complex area of the immigration and tax code, and professional legal and tax advice should be employed to thoroughly understand the particularities of the appropriate laws.
