Q.

H1B: Social Security not withheld

My employer, a small company, did not withheld Fica (social security & medicare) for the last 8 years!
I started as a J1 and when working on H1B it was assumed that Fica doesn't need to be withheld neither.
This was due to wrong professional advice and misunderstandings.
I filed my taxes for each year and everything else got deducted as it should.

1) Will this affect my I140 and I485?
2) What should and can be done now?

Thank you.
