F1-OPT and residency status
Hi:
I have been in the US since 2001 August.
For the year 2006, I filed the 1040 and filed jointly with my husband (who has been in the US since 2000). Both of us were on F1.
For the year 2007, I was on F1-OPT and my husband was on F-1. My SSN and medicare taxes were withheld for 2007. Will I be able to claim it back. Also will I be filing as a full-time student if I was on F1-OPT (but working) the whole of 2007.
Also now that I filed the 1040 for 2006, can I file 1040-NR for 2007 ?
Would appreciate help on this...
