Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Hi @thegoprogrammer, we are in the same situation for 2019 tax. As you became resident for the whole year for tax purpose did you have to pay Medicare and Social Security Taxes on your income from Jan 1 to Sept 30? according to Aliens-employed-in-the-us-social-security-taxes resident aliens are not exempted from Social Security and Medicare Taxes as follows, 'The exemption does not apply to nonimmigrants in F-1, J-1, M-1, or Q-1/Q-2 status who become resident aliens for tax purposes.'

 

How did you file this tax, can you recommend some consultant please.
