Transition from H1B Tax Treaty Exemption to Green Card
I am a UK citizen who is employed at a US university. I was previously on an H1B visa (a few weeks ago). While on the H1B visa, both payroll and the University's International Office determined that I was eligible to claim a tax treaty exemption. I was exempt from Federal and State taxes from November 2007 up until a few weeks ago. This is because I recently got my Green Card (through marriage to a US citizen). I fully understand that the tax treaty exemption no longer applies to me and that I need to pay taxes. My question is do I have to start paying full taxes right away or can I wait until the beginning of the new tax year (next year)? In other words, will the taxes have to be deducted from my next pay check? I cannot afford this at the moment and if it is acceptable to pay the tax as a lump sum at the end of the tax year, I would prefer this option. Please advise. Thanks in advance.

Yes, you DO start paying taxes right away by withholding taxes from your salary. That is the legal requirement that your employer's ppayroll department must implement.

J1 Tax Exemption - J1 H1B Tax Return - J1 Tax Treaty
As a Greencard holder, your exemption ends. You are taxes as a US Citizen.
Since on Dec 31, 2008 you are on H1B and prior to that on J1. So for the year 2008, File Form 1040NR and Form 8843. For your time as a H1B, pay FICA Taxes. Contact us at taxexpert@visataxes.com for our tax preparation services.
