    Which tax form should I use
    Hi,

    I was on F1 from 2004-2009.
    During 2010, I was on F1-OPT from Jan-Sept then my status has changed to H1B.
    Do I file 1040A or 1040NR?
    Also, am I eligible to get refund for SS/Med taxes that were deducted when I was on F1-OPT?

    Thanks,
    Polly

    Polly:

    You became a resident alien effective on 1 January 2009, and, on that date, you also became liable for FICA (Social Security and Medicare) taxes.

    For 2010, file Form 1040A.
