    F1 on CPT, Income Taxes
    Hi,

    I was a F-1 student until this January working on a CPT from Aug-December. I have about $23000 in income for last year and my Fed+state+City taxes were withheld. I am in Ohio and an Indian by nationality.

    I was wondering if someone could answer these questions.

    a) What should my Fed taxes be?
    b) Can I claim standard deductions?
    c) Can I add Student loan payments in deductions?
    d) Do I have to pay FICA and Medicare?

    Thanks in advance for your reply. Much appreciated...
