F-1 visa holders are exempt from paying FICA Taxes, Social Security and Medicare, for a limited time. However, they are subjected to federal taxes, and state/local taxes, if applicable, students on F-1 filing their (federal) income taxes who have been in the USA for 5 years or less need to use the correct tax forms, such as 1040NR or 1040NR-EZ.

		<description><![CDATA[H1B people, its little harsh but you got to understand this point that you are Resident Alien (Immigrant) at this point and can only work for your employer and if there is any other source of Income(online earnings) its considered as Illegal earnings. So basically, if you are on a H1-B visa, you are authorized to work for only one those employers that sponsor your visa. You cannot be self-employed and earn additional income and doing so will render you out-of-status.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=f1toh1.wordpress.com&amp;blog=7303855&amp;post=324&amp;subd=f1toh1&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

In some cases they hire Attorney for this paperwork but majority of companies’ process their own H1B applications.

		<description><![CDATA[Question: H1B Visa holder -&#62; No job -&#62; changed to H4 Visa -&#62; Got Job -&#62; Now Can I start working with my old H1B?

 Answer:  Yes, it would be possible for you to switch back to H-1B if you can find a job. Your employer would have to file a new petition on your behalf in order to change your status from H-4 back to H-1B.
