Re: Medicare/SS REfund for residents issue

Here's my take on this issue. The IRS keeps losing in the courts, yet they are reluctant to refund these taxes to medical trainees.

The best shot you have of getting back this money is to be included in a "class action" submitted by the hospital. If your employer isn't willing to do so, then consider submitting an 1120X or 843 on your own. I wouldn't recommend spending too much time on this, however, since chances are good you won't end up getting a refund.

We have an article on this subject at www.mdtaxes.com/news0201.html. Like everything else that you've found on the web, this article was written back in 2001.
