Exemption from withholding An employee can also use Form W-4 to tell you not to withhold any federal income tax. To qualify for this exempt status, the employee must have had no tax liability for the previous year and must expect to have no tax liability for the current year.
To request a refund of your withholdings for previous tax years, please contact the IRS at 1-800-829-1040 for Federal tax withholding refund and your State Revenue Office for state tax withholding refund. If we are not currently withholding State tax, you must call your State Tax office for a refund.
Students, trainees, teachers and researchers. Alien students, trainees, teachers, and researchers who perform dependent personal services (as employees) can also use Form 8233 to claim exemption from withholding of tax on compensation for services that is exempt from U.S. tax under a U.S. tax treaty.

With that said, there are three strategies you can consider for minimizing your US withholding taxes: Hold US dividend-paying securities in RRSPs. Consider holding US-listed dividend-paying securities in your RRSP account. Claim foreign tax credits for non-registered accounts. Sign a W-8BEN.
First, I recommend reaching out to your employer's human resources or payroll department immediately. Inform them about the error in your W-4 form and the subsequent over-withholding of federal taxes. They should be able to assist you in rectifying the situation.
