    Resident alien fica not withheld?
    Would this still apply in 2011-2012?

    I was a resident for tax purposes in tax year 2011, and did not have FICA withheld (worked 6 months, full time). I'm on an F-1 visa.

    So I will still be exempt from FICA while on CPT in 2012 (for another 6 months)?

    Thanks in advance!
