@Jantare,
I have been to the states since Fall 2010 (Almost 3 years), I think I am not a resident alien for two more years . Tomorrow, I am going to get a first paycheck after my complain to payroll company. I will let u know if I get exempted on these taxes.
@ Magorkhe,
I wonder how it is goint to help for applying green card? I have no idea about it. I am just been in OPT for couple of months. I am going to extend my OPT for 17 more months before applying H1B. And what will be the diffenrece if I got exempted by now and I go to apply for H1B/Greencard after a year?
@Sparty,
I think USCIS website clearly stated that for all students (F-1) status, the FICA taxes are exempted if they are staying in the states less than 5-years. I am not sure, there might be other conditions on which I am not awere of it. Lets see how it goes.
