Worked in the US? Claim your tax back!

Everyone working in the US has a number of taxes deducted from their earnings every time they get paid. While working in America you will have paid up to four different types of tax on your earnings:

• Federal Tax
• State Tax
• Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA) Tax
• Local Tax

Most people who work temporarily in the United States, for example on a J1 Visa, end up overpaying these taxes because they have more than one job or they only work for a few months in America.

The good news is you can get a refund of this overpaid tax. However, US tax returns can be very complicated.

Please be aware of companies that promise to speed up your tax refund by electronically filing (e-filing) your US tax return. Using e-filing is illegal for any US non-residents including J1 Visa students and you could face difficulties with future visa applications to the US if your tax return is not filed correctly.

When choosing a tax return company, we recommend that you select companies which:

• Have a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) in the United States
• Can guarantee that your tax refund will be 100% legal and safe
• Can ensure your US tax return will be 100% compliant with US tax law.
• Provide a US tax return service in your language (E.g. Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, Chinese, …)
