Hi,
A question on taxes for someone on OPT moving to H1.
If I get an H1 for the next year (06), I believe it starts from Oct. 1.
Till then I am on OPT, so no social security tax until then.
But, what's the date for tax purposes when my status actually changes? The day I get H1 (say Oct 1) or the day I go out of country and get it stamped on my passport. So, effectively, what I want to know is can SS taxes be saved in this way.
Thanks in advance,
CP.
