Default F1 opt tax return help! 1040x, 1040nr

Hi there,

I am an English citizen. I came to the US on F-1 status in August 2005. I have been on OPT since July 2009. I incorrectly filed form 1040 using Turbotax and understand that I must now file 1040X along with 1040NR. I also could not get back Medicare from my two employers so I understand I must file form 8843 for that.

I have used CINTAX (provided by my University) to try and fill out the 1040NR correctly and have noticed that I no longer have the $5,700 standard deduction which means that my taxable income has drastically increased and it now looks like I owe the IRS my original Federal rebate of over $1700!

I am concerned that I am not filling out the forms correctly, and would like my 1040X, 1040NR, 8843 and any other forms needed to be filled out by a professional.

Please tell me which visataxes service will cover all of these forms so that I don't have to keep worrying about it.

Many thanks!
