Hi,
Sorry if this has already been asked. Some information about me:
Current Visa: H1-b (Effective October, 2008)
Previous Visa: F-1 (Aug 2005 - Oct 2008)
Based on my search, I think I need to file 1040NREZ and 8843. I do have a question about the social security and medicare tax withheld in 2008 after my visa status changed to H1-b. The 1040NR forms do not have a line item for SS and medicare taxes withheld. Is there a way to get a refund for those taxes?
Thanks :)
