Hello,

While I was doing my OPT from 3/2006 through 10/2006 my employer deducted SS and Medicare taxes. I filed my 2006 tax return not knowing that I could get SS and Medicare back.

What steps do I need to take now that its 2008 and my 06 tax return has been filed and completed? Can I still fill out form 843? Or do I need to amend my 06 return? All of this is so confusing, I'd appreciate any help with the steps I should follow.

Thank you in advance!
