I am unaware of any refund of FICA being made available via a 1040. IMHO, the FICA tax is effectively a kind of Federal sales tax on services (i.e. imagine a retail shop paying its own sales tax). If I recall correctly, FICA is paid to the Social Security Administration. There might be a way to opt out of FICA via IRS Form 4631.
