    Hello

    My wife is on H4. She has received her EAD (Employment authorization document). So she is able to work. Does she needs to pay the Social security and medicare taxes?

    Yes, your income is subject to Social Security and Medicare taxes. If you meet substantial presence test, you will file resident tax return.
