Hi!
My situation is as follows:

I was on F1 for 5 months from January until June, then on OPT from June to Oct then on H1B from Oct until December. How do I file my taxes? What forms do I need to file?

Thank You!

If you are single, file as a non-resident alien, filing Forms 1040nr-ez and 8843 one last time.

If you are married, you can file jointly with your spouse, provided you wait until 1 June 2013 to file to meet the Substantial Presence Test.

Thank you for your response. I am single, but when I report my W-2 I would have social security taxes, medicare taken off for the period of Oct-Dec. How would I be reporting that? And would you recommend any tax software I could use that is good to use in situation as such? Thank You again for your help!

Glacier prepares Form 1040nr-ez.

Otherwise, you have to prepare the return manually.

Thank You so much for your help! Went with Glacier, would you be able to provide any guidance any software to file state taxes?
